Winchester Mod 70 .308 (Pics)
Sharing some pics of a Winchester Model 70 shot show special in .308. It is based on a short action with a 22 inch barrel. Makes for a short handy rifle in a useful caliber.

Herb,
That is indeed a very handsome looking rifle for a factory made example. Congratulations. The wood is particularly good and so is the dark blueing.

I am glad they have reverted to pre-64 bolt. One of the most foolproof design and they owe it to Mauser '98.

Dang, Herb, that is sweet!
It's so nice that I would be afraid to take it out hunting.
That is one good looking rifle!

Very true! The Model M70 and FN98 used in the older Browning Safari are my favorite variations of the the M98marksman wrote:I am glad they have reverted to pre-64 bolt. One of the most foolproof design and they owe it to Mauser '98.
