I have a Ruger Express Rifle in 270 Winchester and I really like the rifle. Like you said, they are beautiful, classy rifles. I have some Model 70s, but none are Super Grades. Pretty tough choice, actually. Obviously, either one is a great choice. Both may achieve collector status; the Winchester because of the plant closing, and the Ruger due mainly to a limited number of these rifles being made. I'd probably go with the Ruger because I like the features and it's limited production. How are both priced?
