    FN builds a good bolt-rifle. I'd imagine they are as good if not better than the original so long as they are spec'd the same.

    FN seems to make everything these days.

    Dee, I saw a program on TV about the Model 70 being made at FN. It was really interesting and their quality control looked top notch. They are even making their own barrels in house. I am a Model 700 guy, but I have been eyeing a Supergrade 25-06 for a while, I may have to snag it up. Winchester really does make a pretty rifle.

    Saw the ame program and got to thinking then looked up the website and they look very nice.
