WINCHESTER 535200289 M70 FEATHERWEIGHT 6.5 CREEDMOOR 22" BBL

Description:
The Winchester Model 70 Featherweight (535200289) is a bolt-action hunting rifle chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, built for deer hunters, mountain hunters, and long-range field shooters who want a classic American bolt gun in a flat-shooting modern cartridge with the handling and craftsmanship that made the Model 70 the Rifleman's Rifle. This 6.5 Creedmoor bolt-action hunting rifle pairs a cold hammer-forged 22-inch Featherweight profile barrel with Pre-64 controlled round feeding and the M.O.A. Trigger System to deliver a rifle that carries light in the field and shoots to the standard the Model 70 name has represented for generations.

Special Features

• The M.O.A. Trigger System ships from the factory with zero take-up, zero creep, and zero overtravel, delivering a clean, adjustable break that competitive shooters and hunting guides recognize as one of the finest triggers available on any production bolt-action rifle without aftermarket replacement.
• Pre-64 controlled round feeding uses a large claw extractor to grip the cartridge rim the moment it clears the magazine and maintain positive mechanical control through the full feeding, chambering, and ejection sequence, eliminating the loose-round handling that plunger-style ejectors can produce under field conditions.
• The cold hammer-forged free-floating barrel produces a harder, more dimensionally consistent bore surface than cut-rifled alternatives, contributing to the long-term accuracy and extended service life that hunting rifles in heavy use demand across many seasons.
• The forged steel receiver with an integral recoil lug bedded front and rear eliminates receiver-to-stock movement under firing loads, maintaining zero consistency across extended shooting sessions and varied weather conditions.
• The recessed target crown protects the rifling at the muzzle from contact damage in the field, preserving the crown geometry that most directly influences exit-point bullet stability and long-range accuracy.
• The alloy one-piece bottom metal adds lateral rigidity to the stock-receiver interface, contributing to the consistent bedding relationship that helps the Model 70 Featherweight shoot to its potential over its lifetime.

Practical Benefits

• At 6 pounds 12 ounces with a 22-inch barrel and a 42-1/4-inch overall length, the Featherweight 535200289 carries comfortably all day in mountain terrain, timber, and open country without the fatigue a heavier hunting rifle generates on long approaches.
• The 6.5 Creedmoor chambering gives you a high ballistic coefficient cartridge with a flat trajectory, strong wind resistance, and retained energy at distance, making this rifle effective on deer, pronghorn, elk at moderate range, and varmints across all the scenarios a general hunting rifle encounters.
• The 1:8 twist rate stabilizes the full range of 6.5 Creedmoor projectiles from lighter varmint options through heavy match-grade hunting bullets, giving you ammunition flexibility across hunting seasons and range applications with a single rifle.
• The three-position safety lets you carry a chambered round safely in the field while keeping the bolt operable for quiet unloading without firing, a practical advantage for hunters moving through dense cover where a shot opportunity can close fast.
• The Grade I walnut stock with Schnabel forearm and 20 LPI cut checkering gives the Featherweight a classic American rifle aesthetic that holds its visual appeal and collector interest over decades of ownership, setting it apart from synthetic-stocked field rifles in the same price range.
• If you are a deer hunter, mountain hunter, or long-range field shooter who wants a proven American bolt gun chambered for the most capable mid-bore hunting cartridge available today, the Model 70 Featherweight 535200289 is built precisely for that purpose.

The Winchester Model 70 Featherweight 535200289 in 6.5 Creedmoor is a reliable pick for serious hunters and bolt-action enthusiasts who want Pre-64 controlled round feeding, a factory-perfect trigger, and classic walnut craftsmanship in a lightweight rifle ready for any hunt from opening day forward.
