Free Model 70 .300 Win Mag!!!

billy · 07-06-2007, 08:15 PM

my buddy just knocked on my door and said here is a gift.
he got in trouble with the law and cant have guns anymore.
no its not "hot" or anything like that.
but it is mine now!
i dont know anything about these rifles.
teach me!

lefty o · 07-06-2007, 08:21 PM

its a winchester for starters. LOL! depends on what year the rifle was made in, as to what you've got. also depends on which exact model. the model 70 is generally a very good rifle. usually they are accurate guns, and they have a very simple to adjust trigger.

YOU LUCKY DOG!!!

Sorry to hear your buddy lost his 2A right.

billy · 07-06-2007, 08:25 PM

how do i find out the year? or anything else for that matter...

yes he's broken hearted.
and i dont blame him for being so.
once again booze has ruined a good mans life.
its crap like that that made me stop drinking.

the bolt and the stock are backwards!!! should be able to date it through ArmsCollectors.com Main Page scroll way down the left hand side of the page.

i know those redfield scopes are hard to find, i have a 2-7 on my '94 and it is a fine scope.

Choco · 07-06-2007, 08:51 PM

Model 70s in .30-06 are nice to shoot.

jerry · 07-06-2007, 08:53 PM

Nice. My 700 is set up like that, retaining the iron sights. When I used to hunt with it in AZ, I liked knowing I had back up in the event of scope failure. The scope is a beauty BTW, a real keeper

billy · 07-06-2007, 08:53 PM

its a 1971

lefty o · 07-06-2007, 09:06 PM

that puts its value as a shooter only, as 1964 till the mid 70's were considered the bad years. if it shoots well, it will make a fine hunting rifle.

Midas · 07-06-2007, 09:09 PM

That is a fine rifle, in a very fine caliber.

SilverRun · 07-06-2007, 09:10 PM

I hunt with a Model 70 .300 win mag. Mine is '90's vintage, but it is a great hunting rifle.

.22guy · 07-06-2007, 09:49 PM

Some guys have all the luck! Nice rifle, and hey the price was right!

billy · 07-06-2007, 09:54 PM

ArkansasHunter · 07-06-2007, 10:31 PM
