This is a fine Pre-64 Winchester Model 70 Rifle in .264 Winchester Magnum, manufactured by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company in New Haven, Connecticut. The serial number 539375 confirms production in 1961, as verified by Winchester’s serialization records, which place numbers in the 530,000–550,000 range for that year. Introduced in 1936, the Pre-64 Model 70, known as the “Rifleman’s Rifle,” is celebrated 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 scarce and highly sought-after by collectors. Its 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 good condition, retaining most of its original blue finish with minimal wear. The 26" barrel features a bright, sharp bore with distinct rifling, indicating excellent maintenance and suitability for shooting. The varnished checkered walnut stock, fitted with a Pachmayr recoil pad for added comfort, has a 14" LOP and shows minor handling marks. The polished bolt, serial numbered to the receiver, confirms originality, and the ramped blade front sight and folding rear express sight are intact. Mechanically fine, the rifle operates smoothly, ready for the field or display. All markings, including the Winchester logo and caliber designation, are crisp and legible.
