This is 1 of 4 of "The Nearly Perfect Rifle Battery" of which only 100 sets were made. I am not sure that means anything to anyone as it means little too me. I bought this with an incorrect assumption it had a forward recoil lug and would rather get rid of this and purchase a rifle with the barrel lug. It is a Super Grade with beautiful wood and bluing. I need $1150 out of it or would consider trading for a Winchester Safari 375 H&H.
Ryan, PM me with more pics. @Red Leg or @Bullthrower338 PM me the difference in a forward recoil lug and a barrel lug.What difference does it make?
Gorgeous M70!!! Were I you I’d definitely keep the rifle and have a gunsmith fit a front recoil lug. The rifle could be glass bedded at the same time.
Hi Ryan, Glad you sold the rifle, your better off with a barrel banded mount for your sling. How's Bill doing? Cheers, Gordon
Now whoever bought this needs to find the other 3 guns for their "set." https://www.ammoland.com/2014/12/mi...e-nearly-perfect-rifle-battery/#axzz55npYlnIh
A MidwayUSA Foundation Promo- that's one of Larry Potterfield's deals. Looks like a nice rifle and the price was certainly right! For whoever got it- won't be too hard to add a front recoil lug then glass bed the whole works.
Bill is great. I ended up buying what I should've bought in the first place. It is not as pretty but it will be easier to handle when I scratch it.
