Well, guys yet another rifle surfaces out of my late fathers cubby holes. I new he had a .308 but it has been years. It is a Winchester Model 70 Featherwieght in .308 SS#247525
Could this be the old Pre 1964 action that was supposed to be so great.
I just sold a Model 70 Sporter Varmint in .308 that was the newer action and I am still kicking myself. Soon I will get a Stealth to make up from the error in my ways

Wait until I ask about the Mossy bolt action 20 gauge

Now that is a strange critter.

Thanks

Karsten
