Well back then some also used custom 98 Mauser's too. I doubt they can shoot with a good target rifle today. Must be a reason all custom action's seem to have round action's for competition rifle's. Model 70 fans are mod 70 fan's, seem to be very loyal. I'd had a couple in the past and one right now. Good rifle's but never had one that could shoot with my Remington's or Sako's. It seem's to me that the attraction of mod 70's for a long time was CRF action. Shoot my present one is CRF, only other I have like that now is a 1903 Springfield. I think it's CRF, never paid much attention to it. Really nice shooting rifle but no competition for my round action rifles for accuracy. Have no idea why, it is what it is.
