Three-position Safety
We have improved the three-position safety
on the new Model 70
™
.
Convenient to operate with the thumb of
the firing hand, the Model 70
™
safety lifts
the firing pin away from the sear. When the
safety is in the middle position, the bolt can
still be operated, allowing unfired cartridges
to be ejected with the safety on.
Blade-type Ejector
A blade-type ejector allows full control
when ejecting a case. Pull the bolt back
slowly and the empty case gently pops out,
which is perfect for target shooters and
vermin control rifles.
Pull the bolt back quickly and the case
exits the chamber with greater force. The
blade-type ejector helps to eliminate short-
stroking malfunctions.
Hammered Barrel
The barrels for the Model 70
™
are produced
in the same American plant that produces
barrels for the rifles and machine guns used
by the American Armed Forces all across
the world.
Each Model 70
™
barrel is cold hammered
from a solid billet of steel for excellent
accuracy and longevity.
Hammered Barrel
Controlled-Round Feed
(CRF) Bolt
This is one of the characteristics that
allowed the Model 70
™
rifle to be chosen as
the ”Bolt-action Rifle of the Century”.
The wide-jaw puller slides smoothly and
contacts about a quarter of the base of the
cartridge, which allows perfect control from
the time it leaves the magazine and enters
the chamber, then immobilises it until it is
completely ejected.
This proven concept allows the extraction of
an unfired cartridge even if it has not been
completely introduced into the chamber.
M.O.A.
™
Trigger System
The M.O.A.
™
Trigger System of the Model
70
™
operates on a simple lever principle.
The trigger A, actuator B, and sear C are
shown above. All internal components,
axis’s and springs, are carefully precision-
made in stainless steel.
In addition, in order to increase their
resistance to corrosion, and for a maximum
reduction of parasitic friction, the sear
and actuator have received a nickel Teflon
plating.
