Designate grooves? Anyone know for sure? I’m sure it’s somewhere in Rule, but I haven’t been able to find it. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/mgf1qSYP/Pre-64-Winchester-Model-70-264-Winchester-Magnum-for-sale.png) image upload site(GI seller photo)

That ‘6’ appears to have been Winchester’s under barrel caliber stamp for 264 Win Mag barrels. There are numerous other examples out there.

AKWolverine: I thought it was a "9" myself?
Naw, just funnin ya - I have no idea what it designates.
I am guessing production marking to designate something?
Good luck in finding your answer.

Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

I own several but I have never pulled the wood off to look.
I am always looking for factory wood stocks!
