I am offering for sale my M70 Super Grade in .243. The gun is in excellent condition. I cannot find any marks on the metal, there are some minor marks on the stock which I have tried to show in the pictures. The gun is sighted in and ready to hunt. The gun comes with:

- Trijicon Accupoint 3-9x scope mounted in Leupold rings. I cannot verify if there are ring marks on the scope as it is mounted.
- RCBS reloading dies.
- Load recipe that has consistently produced sub 1", 5 shot groups at 100 yards for me.
- Approximately 100 brass.
- Approximately 125 Speer 100 gr BTSP (this rifle likes heavy for caliber bullets and these are the bullets the load data is for).
- Approximately 90 Swift Scirocco II 90 bullets.

$2,000 shipped to your FFL in the lower 48.

This is a very nice rifle but my 6.5 PRC has relegated it to the status of safe queen. Round count is 200 to 300. This rifle was manufactured in Portugal and has been extremely reliable and accurate.
 
Sorry, having trouble attaching photos, trying with my phone.

I have handled this rifle, and the pictures don’t do it justice. They don’t build them like this any more.
 
I’m refreshing this as it hasn’t moved and the pictures loaded in a very awkward way previously. Hopefully this will be easier to see. This is a beautiful rifle and really needs a new home.

Beautiful wood on that rifle. GLWS

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
