I am a M70 fan. I got my first one new in 1957 and while it's rebarreled now it's still a primary varmint rifle. Since then I have aquired more and have a nice battery that covers any CF rifle use.

Since 1963 they started making the CRF version again and some of those are nice guns too.

I would just keep looking and finding out the values. Remember that if you buy a junker then it will never be orginal but could be refinished. I much prefer M70's as original as possible except that I like a pad added.

The Featherweights appeal to me much more as the old M70's in standard cartridges were way too heavy.

I would not over react. Somebody will be making M70's again. Meanwhile there are millions of them out there.
