I had two. Sold the Brnu ZKK 602 and kept the Winchester model 70. I've mounted a Leupold 1x4 Vari-X II on it using a set of Weaver pivot mounts.

I've started doing a little load testing and one result is a three shot group measuring 0.871", shot at 100 yds. It was about the third load I tested using the 500gr Hornady RN. I have a few other bullets and weights to try but haven't got around to it, yet.

If you want, PM me your e-mail address and I'll send you a scan of the target with reload info.
