Pre '64 Winchester Model 70 Featherweight in 30-06 gov't.
Let me start with this- No, I don't need to sell this to make ends meet. If you throw me a low-ball offer I will reply in kind and then kindly put you on the blocked list.
On the day I took pictures, there was a lot of smoke haze- so it has an unnatural tint, stock is gorgeous!
Yes, it's got some bluing faded from sitting in a cabinet for years. Granted, it's in excellent shape for a '55.
This is a true "pre-64" model 70 featherweight. Not a reissue. The quality of these rifles are just outstanding. No slop, everything fits like it should- it was fit by hand in this day/age.
Iron sights, butt pad (vintage) make up this classic hunter. I had contemplated hunting with it this year, but I have a bunch in the safe and I should give a custom another chance.
I hunt with a different caliber each year- this year it was narrowed to 3 finalists that I couldn't pick between. In the draw (yes, it came down to that!) the custom 8mauser was pulled. I will run the ad for a few days and if not sold, it can go back in the safe for next year. This is an excellent price for the quality of rifle you are getting. Much different than the $1100 savages and the like that are for sale on bisman currently.
Will come without bases, but I can add some weavers for a bit of $. No, the Burris bases and M8 are not going to be sold, at any price.
$1100 or trade for a ruger #1 in calibers I am interested in. They truly don't make them like this anymore. These rifles come from a time of craftsman over mass production. Controlled round feeding, in excellent headspace! Bore is clear and bright!
