Winchester Model 70 "The Westerner" in .243$1500
810views•5 months ago
Up for sale is a Winchester model 70 called " The Westerner " . The rifle is actually engraved from the factory "The Westerner".
I have done research and can't seem to find anything out about what why these were made or what it meant. They seem to be extremely hard to come by.
This rifle is in excellent shape and has seen hardly any use. It's in easy to get ammo .243. It has a very smooth action and has a blind 5 round mag that opens from the bottom to empty out. The wood is beautiful with some marks. I have taken some pictures to show it.
It comes with the rings , bases and a Simmons 3x9x40 scope mounted and sighted but should be fined tuned to your preference.
From my research the " Westerner " rifles are fitted with a 2 inch longer barrel, scroll work done on the receiver, checkering done in the stock . Not pressed checkering , actual checkering. A different lighter colored wood, then the usual dark wood stock of Winchester. I do not want to get messages that this is a low end $ 700 Winchester as that is not the case. You will be ignored with EXTREME PREJUDICE! I'm allergic to STUPID, and I break out in SARCASM. So you have been warned.
The asking price is $1500 + shipping obo. The pictures don't do this rifle justice as she really I a beautiful rifle. You can try trades. Looking for a pump or semi action shotgun for hunting that does 3inch plus shells. Also looking for a Remington model 700 in .270 or 30.06, with a detachable magazine system. You can also try other trades. Who knows,I might be interested.
No PayPal or scammers Lowballers will be ignored.
Thanks for looking.
