The Winchester factory oval proof is stamped on the left side of the barrel and receiver and the floor plate is marked "-SUPER GRADE-". Jewelled bolt, extractor and follower with the bolt numbered to the gun. Receiver tapped for scope/sight mounting, late safety, straight receiver tang and roughly milled quick release sling swivels.

Very fine as professionally refurbished/restored. The rifle retains nearly all of the blue finish showing the slightest handling marks. The stock is near mint showing a couple light pressure dents with crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
