Yardsale Score....Winchester Model 70 30-06

TargetGrade · Jun 11, 2018

Well at least I think it was a good score....
Early 1973 Vintage Win Model 70
NO hinged floorplate like my other has
BUT
It has a 3 position bolt safety which I thought went away in 1964.
Nice wood, jeweled bolt cheap vintage Simmons Whitetail scope.
Condition ... immaculate. :thumbsup:

Plus it's in MY most desirable caliber.

Nice!!! That old girl looks like she has plenty of hunt left in her. Great find!! Glad she is going to a good home.

Very nice - Congratulations! Sure beats the rusty tools and "just-needs fixins" we usually find.

Was it advertised at the sale or did you just ask?

Carlos Hathcock would approve!

Nice. Lucky buzzard.

Pays to keep your nose to the grindstone, eh?

I’m happy for you. Lots of tine and hard work. Well deserved. BZ

Just riding by and almost hit a phone pole since I was looking backwards.

2 or 3 position safety? My 76 vintage one is a 2.

Dsnyder · Jun 11, 2018

That is a beautiful rifle. I would love to own one like it.

dreadpirate · Jun 11, 2018

WOW! Nice.

RepublicOfFranklin · Jun 12, 2018

Wow that’s nice! Any clue as to what region of MD that sale was in? Best I’ve seen in AA Co,firearm at a yard sale wise, so far was a busted 10/22 without a trigger group.

Three position, I'm thinking the two position is pretty rare.

I thought the other way around........... my 1976 also in 06 has a 2 position.

Wait until these guys found out you got it for $217

I’m not sure but interesting, I’ll do some research if we ever get a rainy day ...

And that’s a pretty good deal.
