We must run on the same track John! I have all four of those as well. Although the 264 is in a Hunters EDGE now, but the 6.5 and 7-08 Featherweights are in wood as is the Sporter 25-06.

7-08

Story on my 7-08 I bought it from a fella in Colorado. He retired from the Air Force and while stationed in Japan he bought this rifle at kadena airbase Japan, when they still sold firearms overseas.

Nice rifles guys. The Classic fwt stock is one of my favorites.

JES rebored this Pre-64 FWT .243 to .358 Winchester, my latest project gun. The .243 bore was in pretty bad shape, wouldn't group, metal was OK, stock had been redone, but not so well.

Here's a link. You'll have to scroll back to the start to see the whole project.
https: www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/16614398/re-358-win-pre-64-fwt#Post16614398

Current load is 178 gr. Hammer over 46 gr. RL-7. Shoots around an inch. I took it deer hunting this weekend, didn't get a shot. Waiting to see what this load will do to a WT.

Glassed and free floated. Vintage trigger tweaked to 3#'s with no perceivable creep or overtravel, just a clean break. And yes, the old M-70 trigger can be adjusted to near perfection.

All in McMillan Bridges Edge stocks, save the Weatherby, Regular fill.

There are others.


Nice group of classics !
some of those are in hard to get chamberings.

not familiar with the bridges style stock. I've seen the legend in some pics on here before. The forearm looks a little like a legend but the grip is on your stocks is more open..

Thanks,

It's been a trip, for sure. Probably the most contorted Loony project of my Loony career.

But a lot of fun.

You don't see many Winchester Model 70 Laminated Classics anywhere these days. I bought this one back in mid 2002 when they were first introduced, I've seen a few chambered in 300WSM and one other in 270WSM, although I cant say I've ever seen one chambered in 7WSM. From memory, they were only made between 2002-2004.
