On the, "gently used" one, a nice solid Winchester red pad would make that rifle look great

Jgray, those are both beautiful rifles......
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

That's a shame about the rear sight....You may want to check the condition of the bore (many are "shot out")....Looks like the stock has been refinished too. You've got one hell of a good action there with tons of potential and you did good at $350.00..........Keep us posted if you change it up a bit or if you find out the bore is pristine and it shoots dime sized groups at 100....

What a find, put yourself a 24-26" Douglas air guage winchester target profile barrel in 264 win mag and never look back, the feather weight barrel will not burn the powder.

Well, glad to be able to post this beauty here. I am now down to one (yes, 1) big game hunting rifle. About to send it off for bedding, but if it shoots as good as it looks a second stock will be ordered and life will be a lot simpler w/out horse trading rifles all the time Model 70 Classic - 30-06 FN 1pc Bottom Metal Stock perfected by Karnis (tip, cap, pad, refinish) 6x36 LRD in Talley Xlows (pictured in lows) 2nd stock will be McM Sako Classic EDGE, PT&G BM

Good luck finding a bolt. Damn Winchester quality control [bleep] up again!!!!!! It's one thing to slap the wrong extractor on one of these but when you forget the whole bolt, you know you've been smoking too much dope!!!!
