Jack, I turned 18 in 1973 and bought my first center fire rifle that year, a Model 70 in 30-06. Purchased new from a large sporting goods retail store (not a dedicated gunshop) I paid $164 and change total out the door, with soft case. That $35 less for the 670 was over 20% less, with the only difference being the wood. Even at that time, some thought the less garish 670, without spacers and forend tips, etc., actually looked better.
