The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - Model 70 Winchester pre-WWII has 300MAG as the caliber. My question is what 300Mag?

How sure are you the barrel is original?
Bought a 1952 vintage compilation of Jack O'Connor's articles while being couped up by the Covid Panic. .300 Mag meant .300 H&H or .300 Weatherby in 1952. The Weatherby came along in 1944.
