The left side of the barrel is marked MODEL 70 CAL 280 REM. Featherweight is stamped in cursive on the right side of the barrel. I have never seen a FW with the cursive stamp. Unfortunately, the stock appears to have been altered- it has white and black spacers between the wood and the red pad. Who is John Galt?

I guess it was just the way Winchester did it at the time???? Randy "Some people are like Slinkies - not really good for anything but they bring a smile to your face when pushed down the stairs".
