Included in this lot is a Winchester Model 70 bolt action rifle, chambered in .270 WCF, that is a rare Pre-64 deluxe rifle manufactured in 1948. The Mod. 70 was largely based off of the Model 54, and was nicknamed "The Rifleman's Rifle". Additionally, the Model 70 was coined as the "Bolt Action Rifle of the Century" by Shooting Times Magazine in 1999. The Model 70 began production in 1936. This fine rifle utilizes cut-checkered texture on the walnut fore-grip and pistol grip. The rifle is marked in numerous places on the 24" blue'd barrel, reading "MADE in U.S.A.- Winchester Proof Steel - Winchester ® Model 70 - .270 WCF." on the left side of the barrel and "Winchester -Trade Mark-" on the left side of the receiver. The rifle includes the original front sight and a checkered metal butt plate. Overall, the rifle shows very good mechanical condition and good aesthetic condition. The rifle has a fantastic bright bore with very strong rifling and a tight, smooth action. The walnut butt-stock and fore-grip shows some light wear from use and transport. Serial Number: 78038. This rifle qualifies as a Curio & Relic Long Gun, and requires FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.
