Default Winchester new model 70

Well checked one out at wholesale today must say well the bolt and action are quite nice really wish they would have added a clip and really don't care for the stock at all very uncomfortable / bad fit / feel for me.

Anyone else get to check one out yet?

Yeah I looked at one last week, it had nice wood on it, but the checkering wasn't as sharp as my old push feed featherweight, also felt a bit heavier. Nice recoil pad compared to my old red rubber pad. Trigger wasn't as nice as mine, but hopefully it could be adjusted as easily as my old one. Winchesters triggers were one of the best for a hunting rifle, hope they didn't screw up a good thing with this new trigger design.
