I don't know if Winchester rifles are as good as they were years ago.
I had a pre 64 Winchester model 70 with a 4 power Weaver scope on
it, and I never missed anything I shot at. Back in the 1950s there were
a lot of 1903 Springfields on the surplus market. My Dad bought one
and put a Bishop stock on it, and gave it to me when I returned from
service in the Air Force. I couldn't hit the broad side of the barn with
it, so I traded it on the Winchester 30:06. If they are as good now as
they were then, they can't be beat.
