Don't keep digging yourself a hole. Like I said before if someone wants it they will buy it.

Not digging any hole, just supplying info if someone thinks I am trying to sell a standard featherweight as something else. As it sits now, it has been out of the box twice. If someone wants a grade III, I have one.

Gunbroker is often times a better place to sell a higher priced rifle. I wish you the best of luck selling your nice Winchester fwt rifle...
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

Hi,
I am new here but this seams to be the place to get an answer to something I have not been able to find info on. I am a fan of the 6.5X55 and have been using a model 94 Swedish Mauser that I sporterized over 40 year ago, but I have always wanted one with a longer barrel. I was recently able to pick one up in the Winchester Featherweight that has a beautiful stock which bring me to my question, how do I know what grade it is? I read the description of the five different grades but I am not sure just what it means.
I would post a picture but haven't figured how to do it so any help there would also be appreciated. Thanks

copy and paste the 'image' link
All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

DPR64, I apologize for causing a s-storm over this - I certainly never for a second thought that you were attempting to sell a lesser rifle for a true Grade III. I agree with the other posts that the rifle will sell for what it is - a higher-end Model 70 with better fit and finish than the standard grade. I'm sure that the pictures don't do it justice and hope that someone will buy it at the value price for which it is offered. I also agree that GunBroker may be a more productive venue to sell this. Again, my apologies for making you feel that you had to defend your rifle and yourself - I thought I was helping.
Respectfully, P-Man
