Like you said, you have a Model 70 XTR. The XTR series rifles were a little bit glossier with nicer wood and better metal finish than the standard Model 70. They were made from the late 1970s to the mid-1980's (not sure of the exact years). There is nothing special about them other than the finish and a few chamberings that were specific to the XTR rifles.
