Model 70 Coyote Light

[2lazy2P]

Picked up a Winchester Model 70 Coyote Light in .308 and a VX-3 4.5-14x50 last night on trade. Got the scope mounted after work and sighted her in with 168 BTHP's that came with deal. Gun feels and shoots good. Last five shot group measured 1.0625 outside to outside and .7545 minus the bullet diameter. Not bad with factory ammo. Gonna put some hand loads down the tube tomorrow and see if the groups tighten up.
I had looked these up on the PM search feature and found some poor accuracy reviews but I'm pleased so far. Just thought I'd post from the other side of the fence...

I have one in 243. Bug holes all day long with my hand loads.

I got rid of a Model 70 243 wssm. I don't reload it shot like a scatter gun all over the place with factory ammo. I traded it for a tikka 243. I traded it to a guy that hand loads hope it works out for him.

Bushy, I would like it much better with one of your bad [beeep] custom paint jobs on it.....

I won't argue that at all.

I have the same gun in .22-250. It's really a great gun.
