M70 264 WM FWT Maple stock

[SJB358]

I have been looking for one of these dark maple stocked SHOT rifles for awhile. I know some folks wanna gag over maple, but for some reason, the dark maple and SS just looks great.

Anyhow, I wanted a 270, but I found a decent deal on the 264, so I nabbed it.











I pulled the mounts on it and put a set of Leupold Backcountry 30mm on it with a Trijicon 2.5x15 Credo. It does have a bit of weight to it, but it should be nice to look at during the slow times in the woods

YUP! I wouldnt have picked that out as Maple due to the dark color. Im guesing thats a stain? I do like the "Blonde" looking Maple a little better, but that is a really pretty rifle. My 250 sav. was in the white with a walnut stock years ago. I had it blued because I'd never heard of Cerakote at the time. Maybe didnt exist yet. It was a long time ago. Anyway, like your rifle!

Kinda excited to shoot it a little. I kinda have a mind to try some 120's in it, just for the heck of it.. Figure something like the 120 BT, ET, TTSX might be pretty good for local deer.

Beautiful rifle! I really like that dark maple and stainless.

I'm a sucker for curly maple in all varieties, but this is beautiful in its own class. Good pick up. The fact it's flavored in 264 is also very appealing to me

Good looking rifle and love the dark curly maple stock. It really is set off with the stainless. Personally, I like the dark over the light maple. Hope it shoots as good as it looks. Dan.

Beautiful! I love it. You did good.

Nothing wrong with it! From production rifles I haven't seen that color before. Looks good and in 264wm to boot!

Very nice rifle. Let's see some small groups with some Accubonds.

Sweet rifle, I like the maple.

 

[SJB358]

I have some 120 ET's, BT, Barnes 120 TTSX and 140 Speer Deep Impacts to try. I wouldn't mind putting together a few loads to see if I can get something decent to fall out of it for hunting season.

 

[JD338]

That's a pretty good selection of bullets to try. I'm certain you will come up with a good load in short order.

Scotty,
Great looking rifle! I'm thinking it would be laser flat with a 120 e-tip!
