This is a 1956 Win M70 30-06 that I got used in 2005

The previous owner shot:
2 grizzlies
6 moose
10 mountain goats
6 sheep
109 Sitka Black tailed deer
16 black bear
2 caribou

Then he died, and his nephew sold it to me.

I put a different stock, barrel, scope, sling, and bi pod on it that add up to 8.75 pounds.
It is now a 270

I shot 4 mule deer with it in 2008.
I shot 4 mule deer with it in 2009.
