Description:
Here we have a very nice Winchester Model 68 bolt action rifle in .22 long rifle caliber. The Winchester Model 68 was a single-shot, bolt-action .22 caliber rimfire rifle sold from 1934 to 1945 by Winchester Repeating Arms Company. While almost identical to the slightly cheaper Winchester Model 67, it offered an aperture sight. The early 1930s were a period of intense competition amongst American rifle manufacturers such including Winchester, Iver Johnson, and Mossberg. In an attempt to win the loyalty of entry-level single-shot rimfire rifle buyers, these companies continuously cut production costs and pared profits down to the bare minimum. Winchester already offered a single-shot rimfire rifle aimed at the competition market, the Model 60A, but it had failed to win significant market share due to its relatively high price and was considered a sales disappointment. This particular example is in very good condition exhibiting some light high edge and muzzle wear. The stock has a few pressure marks and a few scratches on the right side of the stock. The butt plate is in very good condition. The 27 inch barrel has a good bore with strong rifling. An aperture rear sight and a hooded blade at the front. This fine Winchester would make a great woods walking rifle.
