Didn't realise it was dead. My favourite calibre Started with adverts in the outdoor magazine when I was a kid. Finally found a push feed M70 and used it for years. Chris now ownes it and has taken plenty of game with it. I imported a M70 featherweight and liked it but the Pre 64 bug got a hold of me and now I have a pre 64 in 264WM.
Great cal with good ballistics, I run 125 partitions, 120 ACP's, 140 accubonds and 140 PPSN's. Kills well, great on fallow.
