Alright, this is the Winchester collectors forum. It is your duty to post up pics of your sweet model 71. I sold mine to gunner500 here last year and it was a sweet usable rifle: If I had any ammo to send/sell you, I'd help a brother out. Good luck in your search and keep care of that nice 71 you inherited.
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

Years ago I sold a M71 when I knew no better. That gentleman's son now has the rifle and he won't part with it.
I have one lever gun a 1894 full octagon barrel in 38-55. You can't find ammo for that either.

I wish I could BSA but I'm not very computer savy. It is in very similar condition as yours. Mine is a standard. Not a delux. Lyman peep site no drillings for a scope or sling. I'd guess it hasn't been shot in close to 40yrs. I took it out and fired a fee rounds last month. It shoots great!

Get on the Notify list at places like Midway, Graf's, Midsouth, etc. It's due to appear soon (maybe already has?). Don't tarry when it does.
I see factory Winchester on Gunbroker going for around $65-$70/box now. I'm guessing retail pricing for the new run will not be much less than that..
Just checked the above sources...unless you're willing to wait you best consider buying off Gunbroker..MHO..
