The serial number 491213 confirms production in 1960, as verified by Winchester’s serialization records for the Model 70, which place numbers in the 480,000–500,000 range for that year. Introduced in 1936, the Pre-64 Model 70, often called the “Rifleman’s Rifle,” is renowned for its controlled-round-feed Mauser-style action, precision craftsmanship, and elegant design. The .264 Winchester Magnum, introduced in 1958, is a powerful, flat-shooting cartridge designed for long-range hunting of deer, elk, and other big game, making this chambering particularly scarce and sought-after among collectors. The rifle’s historical significance lies in its status as one of Winchester’s finest pre-1964 offerings, before cost-cutting changes altered the model’s construction, and its rarity in .264 Win Mag enhances its collectible value. This example is in very fine condition, with the 26" barrel and receiver retaining over 97% of their original matte blue finish, showcasing crisp proof marks and minimal wear. The bore is bright, indicating excellent maintenance and suitability for shooting. The factory varnished checkered walnut stock, featuring a pistol grip and checkered black plastic butt plate, shows scuffs on the left side and a bruise on the butt, adding character without compromising integrity. The bolt, serial numbered to the receiver, confirms originality, and the factory sights and sling swivels are intact. Mechanically excellent, the rifle operates smoothly, ready for the field or display. All markings, including the Winchester logo and caliber designation, are crisp and legible. Don’t miss your chance to own this exceptionally scarce Pre-64 Winchester Model 70 in .264 Winchester Magnum, a true gem for collectors and hunters.
