Not sure about earlier models, but a new SG should have fancy wood with a 'shadowline' cheekpiece, ebony tipped fore end, wrap-around checkering and a metal grip cap. The metal should have a high gloss blued finish and the barrel should be stamped "Model 70 Super Grade" on the right hand side. The model number for the Super Grade in 30-06 is 535107228.

From what I've seen on used SG prices, you'd probably be able to pick up a new one for what most folks are asking for a used model. Oh, and congrats on the buck!
Thanks for the information.

Yeah, I was a little taken aback by some of the asking prices for the used ones. You can by a new one for about 1200, and some guys were asking for essentially new prices. I'll probably just get a new one.

Are the post 2008 model 70's considered as good as the legendary old ones?
