This is an extremely limited production Winchester Model 70 Target rifle. Approximately 125 were made and were based on the Winchester Model 70 Vitra match action. Manufactured in 1971, the configuration is International Match, but the front sight was altered by the addition of a spirit level which was allowed in these matches. Scope mounts are mounted on the rear of the barrel and top of the receiver ring. A Redfield International target rear sight is attached to the receiver. The right side of the barrel is marked "PALMA MATCH/NRA CENTENNIAL 1871-1971." Jeweled bolt numbered to the gun, polished follower, rubber muzzle cover and mounted with a target stock featuring a Winchester solid recoil pad, forearm rail with palm rest and leather Boyt sling. Formerly of the Peter and Patty Murray Collection.
