dasMafia,

The Ruger doesn't take any back seat to the newer Winchesters! The new WinJAMMERS, I should say. I tried two of the Safari Classics, one in 375, and one in 416Rem. My safari partner bought one in 416 at the same time I bought mine. ALL three guns jammed almost every time we tried to chamber a round from a full magazine. My 375 was sent back to Worstchester for f.ctory (you supply the "u") repair and came back as bad as when sent.
I like and own four of the old 70", but wouldn't have a new "classic" 70 if one were given to me!
I have a Ruger in 338 and in 416Rigby (RSM) and like them both. I did change that abomonitation that they call a "trigger" to a timney, however.
