Awhile back I was in the Buda Texas Cabelas and bought aCabelas Commorative Model 70 supergrade featherweight in 7x57. I was old these were a special run of only 250 rifles. Several months after that I saw Winchester Model 70 supergrade featherweight in7x57 on one of the online auctions. I bid and won the auction. Both rifles are identical except for the Cabelas engrossed on the floor plate . Each has upgraded wood , free floated barrel,ebony fore end , and recessed target crown . Both are missing the shadow line cheek piece and are stamped featherweight.
I called Winchester and gave them the serial numbers for each rifle. Winchester informed me that both rifles were built in 2013 and both were part of special runs of 250 each commissioned by Cabelas. One run had the engraved floor plate and the other did not. Both seem to have the featherweight contour barrel but the wood is dense and heavy. Can anyone tell me what I have? Thanks in advance .

It ain't the way it used to be, but it will do.
