"Overall would go to any rifle built by Army & Navy. (I prefer plain-jane utilitarian English Doubles.)"

Army & Navy never built any guns - they just retailed them.

Likelyhood is your are referring to Webley actioned guns which I totaly agree
are excellent - I have quite a few and love them.

"I don't think there is a more utilitarian bolt built than a Pre64 M70 Winchester"
as long as it has cross bolts fitter - the early ones split stock very quickly.
