Looking at a pre 64 Win M70, but buyer says it has a plastic buttplate. Weren't all pre 64's equipped with aluminum ones? Thanks

I believe the later ones went to plastic.
JOC was right. The 270 Winchester on a Model 70 is a great combination as is the 30/06 and 375 H&H

Quick answer no. Later models had plastic butt plates, I am to lazy to look at Rules book right now but one of the experts will give you the year. I believe late 50's to the end.

I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

I'm nowhere near the expert some of the guys here are, but what I can tell you is my '61 is plastic.

I believe a '59 could be either, depending on how early in the year production occured. After'59, definitely plastic.

It's a 1960 Fwt on Gun Broker, so it having a plastic buttplate makes sense. Thanks guys!
