Guns Listing ID: 494509
The Winchester Model 100 is a semi-automatic rifle that was designed and produced by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. Chambered in .308 Winchester (often referred to as .308 Win), it was produced from the early 1960s to the 1970s.
Key Features and Specifications:
Caliber: .308 Winchester (a popular and versatile cartridge, widely used for hunting and target shooting, known for its good range and accuracy).
Action: Semi-automatic, which means it automatically cycles the action after firing a shot, ejecting the spent cartridge and chambering the next round. This provides quicker follow-up shots compared to bolt-action rifles.
Magazine: It uses a detachable 4-round magazine (some variants had higher capacity magazines).
Barrel Length: Typically around 22 inches, which is ideal for a mix of accuracy and portability.
Stock: The rifle comes with a wooden stock (typically walnut) with a classic design and a comfortable grip.
Sights: Equipped with iron sights, though many owners add scopes for more precise aiming, especially when using the .308 Win round, which is popular for long-range shooting.
Design & Purpose:
The Model 100 was designed to be a hunting rifle, combining the reliability of a semi-automatic action with the power of the .308 Winchester round. The .308 Win is known for its versatility, making it suitable for both medium and large game hunting.
Though it was a short-lived model in terms of production (only produced from 1961 to 1974), the Model 100 was appreciated for its balance of performance, ease of use, and modern features for its time. It was one of the first semi-auto rifles chambered for a full-power cartridge like the .308.
Notable Characteristics:
Recoil: The .308 Win produces moderate recoil, making it manageable for most shooters, especially with the semi-automatic action absorbing some of the impact.
Accuracy: Known for reasonable accuracy, especially at mid-range distances. The 22-inch barrel helps in maintaining good velocity and accuracy over longer ranges.
Durability: The Model 100 was made with durability in mind but had some issues with reliability over time. The gas-operated action, which helps cycle the semi-automatic operation, could be prone to malfunctions if not properly maintained.
Although the Winchester Model 100 is no longer in production, it remains a respected piece of firearm history among collectors and enthusiasts. It was one of the early semi-automatics that helped shape the market for semi-automatic rifles in powerful calibers like the .308 Winchester.
