Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Winchester Collectors Pre-war Model 70 30government06 ballpark

This is the standard model 71. I wanted one for a shooter. This will do fine. I have other guns that can serve in this purpose but when I move out to Basin where I grew up I like having very good guns in calibers that nobody can get ammo for. The reason is that then nobody will try to steal it if they can't find ammo. I did this when I was living in the Bush and growing up. I had zero problems with gun theft while others lost every gun that they had. There is not as much of an interest in guns in weird calibers.
