Overview

RIFLE: WINCHESTER MODEL 70, SERIAL NUMBER G2010655, BLUE, CASE NOT INCLUDED, BOLT ACTION, 7MM REMINGTON MAGNUM, 24" BARREL, WOOD STOCK, GOOD CONDITION, LEUPOLD VX FREEDOM 3-9 X 40Notes:The Winchester Model 70 XTR Sporter Magnum chambered in 7mm Remington Magnum is a highly regarded bolt-action rifle produced during the late 1970s and 1980s. The "XTR" designation stands for Winchester's premium finish tier of that era, characterized by a deep, high-gloss blued metal finish and a beautifully finished walnut stock with crisp cut checkering. Because it is a magnum caliber, it features the "Sporter Magnum" roll stamp on the barrel, paired with a standard 24-inch barrel length and a 3-round magazine capacity.Push-Feed System: Rifles from the XTR era (pre-1992) use Winchester's robust push-feed bolt design rather than the pre-'64 style controlled round feed. While traditionalists often prefer the later "Classic" series with controlled round feed, the XTR push-feed actions are legendary for being incredibly smooth, highly reliable, and exceptionally accurate.Three-Position Safety: Features the iconic wing safety mounted on the bolt sleeve, allowing you to cycle the action to unload the chamber while the rifle remains completely safe.
