Outstanding and Rare Pre-64 Winchester Model 70 Featherweight Westerner Bolt Action Rifle with Box

On page 120 of The Rifleman's Rifle only 3,116 Featherweight Westerner rifles are listed as manufactured pre-64. This makes it only slightly more common than a standard Featherweight in .358 Win. (2,000 manufactured) and significantly more rare than the second most rare standard Featherweight in .270 W.C.F. (22,992 manufactured). The .264 Win. Magnum cartridge was designed for the Westerner and Featherweight Westerner Model 70s and use on the open ground of the Great Plains where its flat shooting nature was ideal for long range shooting. It is capable of taking any game in North America but is most popularly used for smaller game such as deer as opposed to elk, moose, and bear. This example was manufactured in 1962 and has the standard markings including the matching serial number on the bolt, a beaded front sight with hood and serrated ramp, fold down Lyman 16B rear sight, tapped receiver for peep or scope mounting, late style safety and receiver tang, and a Monte Carlo stock with checkered forend and grip, vented Winchester recoil pad with black and white spacers, and sling swivels. The box is numbered to the gun and includes papers.

ConditionNear new gun in replacement box. The rifle displays only minor handling and storage type marks. The box is fair with duct tape applied to exterior.
