Wanna bet? Push feeds were 7 digits since the early 70's.

Yep their was but you have took at the sn range Since the sn range is after 1992 when usrac was bought by fn. Winchester started with a 5 digit sn when they retooled after 92. Winchester did not get to 7 digits until late 2002 early 2003.

The 5 digits starting in '92 were Classics only. The push feed numbers went on unchanged. Trust me.
