Pre 64 Winchester Model 70 300 H&H Magnum. Scarce undrilled rear bridge, Excellent!


Description:
***SOLD***
Excellent and hard to find Pre 64 Winchester Model 70 300 H&H magnum with the very scarce SMOOTH topped, yet UNDRILLED rear receiver bridge. These unique H&H Magnums (both 300 and 375) were only produced for about a 4 to 5 year period beginning just after WWII until late 1950, when Winchester then began drilling the rear bridge similarly (but with closer spacing) to all of the other calibers. There are very few of these left that have not been drilled for modern scope bases by their subsequent owners. 
S/N 168767 with matching scribed bolt made in late 1950.
Very nice condition, showing 98% original blue over most with exception of a small patch of stabilized corrosion on heel of buttplate, and 97% Varnish with scattered light handling marks. 
The 26" barrel has an excellent bore, and all mechanical functions are smooth and proper. I have personally verified that the chamber has not been reamed to 300 Weatherby nor any other.
This is a very fine, scarce, and solid rifle, chambered in one of the greatest all around big game hunting calibers ever.

Fully insured UPS 2-day air shipping in a dedicated foam lined box is an additional $150
