Winchester ~ 70 (1948) ~ .270 WCF

Description:
This 1948 bolt action rifle is a Winchester Model 70 chambered in .270 WCF (.270 Winchester). It has a 24-inch barrel, a fixed textured ramp dovetailed blade front sight, a black checkered steel butt plate, a side-swing safety lever, a Mauser-style controlled-feed action, and cut checkering on the forearm and pistol grip stock. The action maintains positive control of a round throughout the feeding process and makes for an extremely reliable rifle. For this reason, the early Model 70 rifles have been favorites of many a dangerous game hunter on multiple continents, including Africa. Other features of the beloved Pre '64s are a three-position safety that allows for the safe cycling of the bolt, hand-fitted parts, ultra-high quality finishes, and beautiful hand-checkered wood stocks. The serial number on this beauty is 109608. The bluing on this rifle is in excellent condition. The walnut wood stock likewise, is in excellent condition, with no noticeable marks, chips, cracks, or scrapes. The bore is bright and shiny with strong rifling intact. It comes with an adjustable soft brown leather sling and a Leupold 3 X 9 VARI-X II riflescope. .270 Winchester
