Winchester model 70 "Coyote" version worth building on?

[Axlrod]

As a model 70 fanboy, it's not what I would get for a "build." They cost more, weigh more and don't have the aftermarket support of other stuff out there. It can be done, but make sure what's available is going to give you what you want.

I have a mid 90's Winlite that came with a Mcmillan stock in 270. It weighs 6 1/4 pounds out of the box. So they are not all heavy. Aftermarket? The stock triggers are very good, and UM is ramping up to build Rokstoks for the Winchester.
