Description:

Manufactured in 1941 when the .35 Remington caliber was introduced to the Winchester Model 70 production line. The .35 Remington caliber was discontinued in 1947, making this Model 70 caliber one of the rarest. There were a total of 404 model 70's made in 35 Remington. The rifle has standard Winchester markings including the factory oval proof on the left side of the receiver and barrel at the breech. Equipped with a hooded ramp front sight and elevation adjustable rear sight with the receiver tapped for scope/sight mounting. Polished bolt numbered to gun, pre-war safety, hinged floor plate and cloverleaf receiver tang. Mounted with a checkered straight comb pistol grip stock with sling swivels and checkered steel buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Excellent. The rifle retains 97% original blue finish showing some mild high edge wear with heavier wear on the buttplate. The stock is also excellent with a few very scattered mild handling marks and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
