I mainly shoot 6.5 cm and am adding a 223. But I also have a pair of model 70s in 300 and 338WM in the safe that have been sitting without an optic for a decade or more. I also have an extra SWFA 3-9 that needs a home so I think one of them is going to get some glass.
In theory the 300 might be more practical though I cant imagine needing more than my 6.5 for any actual hunting anyway. Its a black shadow walmart special from the early 2000s and the barrel is a 26 which I dont love.
The 330 feels less practical but its an xtr from the 80s so much nicer, has a decent wood stock and nice pad, and a shorter barrel which I like.
Both are good shooters as I recall and actually have similar felt recoil.
Which one gets the glass?
