  1. It’s to covert M70 Stealth (push feed action) in detachable magazine.

    PTG looks like the best option and runs AICS Mags. 
    Just spoken with my Gunsmith about trueing action, bedding etc. 
     

    It all looks a possibility, I’m really leaning towards a classic style rifle that I could use daily. As I get older I’m shying away from tacticool tube guns covered with pic rails and half tonne of shite bolted on. 
     

    I want my rifle to look like a rifle again but still be an accurate working tool. 
     

    Kind regards,

    Bob. 

  2. Evening chaps,

    Does anyone know the availability and approx cost of bottom metal to suit a Winchester Mod 70 push feed action?

    I know that Pacific Tool do list one but trying to find a UK source.

    Thinking of a project but checking the feasibility of gathering the parts first.

    Kind regards,

    Bob. 
     

     

  3. The Styria unit is extremely well engineered, all be it slightly heavy. 
    I had it fitted to both my 69’s... makes me regret in a moment of rash stupidity I sold both of them.

    I have used SSG69’s for both work (culling) and recreational shooting for over 20 years and to be honest I don’t think that anything can touch them out of the box, yes the mag housing is need of upgrade for sure but for a rifle that’s 50 years old it still takes some beating. 
     

    Sad day when production stopped.

    Kind regards,

    Bob. 

  4. Evening,

    The Styria arms bottom metal is the way to go, it really is superb.

    If the original bottom metal were to be remanufactured in steel or alloy it would seriously wear out the plastic locking lugs on the original mags. 

    Steyr now produce an improved version of the plastic mag well for the 69 with metal reinforcements around the screw holes.

     

    Kind regards,

    Bob.

  5. Evening, I have put a deposit against a new SSG08 but my Son in Law wants one too so I’m definitely interested if yours was at the right price? 
     

    Can you please send me the specs and the price that you will be looking for?
    I have tried to PM you but it says you cannot accept messages?

    Kind regards,

    Bob.

  6. That’s great thank you,

    I have had a close look at SSG08 & AI-AX today, for me the SSG08 feels much more “quality”. 
    Decision made I think.

    Thank you all for the input. 
    Kind regards,

    Bob.
