My late and dear friend Lester H. Hawkes of Kalispel Montana had two M70's that he purchased in 1952 from Winchester, both .375's. Both rifles came with 2 1/2X Lyman Alaskan scopes. One was bobbed to 22" and became Les' guide rifle on the T-Bar-3 Dude ranch (I think that was the name). The other remained unfired until I become friends with Less whilst wearing Red Serge in 1972. THOSE were hunting rifles par-excellence. One, the non-shortened rifle with 25"(I think) factory length barrel is curently owned by another of Les' Canuck friends.
