Winchester Model 70 Classic Sporter in .270 Weatherby Magnum **Controlled Round Feed - Scarce in this Caliber - USA Made**

Description:
Here we have a scarce Winchester Model 70 "Classic Sporter" bolt action rifle in .270 Weatherby Magnum caliber. The Model 70 is an iconic bolt action rifle and it has gone through several iterations over it's lifespan. The rifle was originally produced by Winchester in New Haven, CT and production moved for a short time to an FN plant in South Carolina before the Model 70 production moved to Portugal. The “Classic”, this action was a return to the things that made the Model 70 famous. Featuring a full-length claw extractor, receiver mounted ejector, coned breech and controlled round feeding (CRF), the Classic had the look, feel, and function of its revered forefather. It wasn’t an exact copy, however, and actually offered several improvements over the Pre-’64 action. The ultra-reliable trigger and often copied 3-position safety that helped make the Pre-’64 Model 70 famous remained on the Classic Model 70.  This particular example is chambered in .270 Weatherby Magnum caliber of which very few were made. This rifle is in outstanding mechanical and physical condition exhibiting basically zero handling marks. This Winchester is in mint condition. The 26" barrel has a mint bore with very strong rifling. The stock has handsome grain, Monte Carlo cheekpiece, sharp checkering and red rubber pad. The controlled round action is buttery smooth and sure. 2 piece Weaver style bases are installed on the receiver just waiting for rings and a scope. This fine USA made Winchester CRF Classic Sporter would make a great addition to a collection or a strong start to a new collection. No box with this one.
