Model 70 ID Help
« on: October 16, 2006, 06:38:28 AM »
Yesterday I picked up a Mdl 70 at a show that I can't quite pin down the specific model on.  The details:

Post 64 push feed action
20" barrel
No iron sights
Caliber:  .257 Roberts
Injection molded synthetic stock with Winchester recoil pad
Matte black metal finish
Hinged floor plate
Serial # G2084XXX

It appears to be close to one of the Post 64 "lightweight" or "compact" versions, but I can't find anything in any of the books I have that shows those versions in that specific caliber.  It looks to have never been fired and came with a Leupold 6X M8 Compact (definitely not new though) scope mounted on it.  It's a nice light compact setup that should work well for one of my kids.

Anyone have any ideas on the specific model this might be?
