There is a really nice pre-'64 Model 70 in 264 Win Mag at the Cabela's Gun Library at the LaVista, NE, store. 402-861-4800.
This is one of the nicest pre-'64 Model 70s that I've seen since I traded my Father's collection of them to Bearrr264 16 years ago. It is pricey, $1,700 IIRC, but it has condition, condition, condition and is chambered for one of the less common cartridges. If you're in the market for this rara avis, I don't think that you'll be disappointed.

Is it a standard wt. or fwt westerner?
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

IIRC, it has a monte carlo style stock, so I think that it is a fwt. I only picked it up because it looked out of place in a rack full of Ruger 77s, but I didn't look closely at it.

Cabela's prices most of their used guns at maximum prices or higher. For example, the LaVista store currently has several Remington 722s and 788s priced between $600 and $900. They do have a really nice 722 deluxe in 222 with a proper period Kollmorgen scope and Stith Mount, but they are asking $900 for it.

Cabela's mark up is at least 30%. All used guns go through the gun library.

Sometimes they don’t know what they have. I bought a real nice Kleinguenther from them for 400.00. It was worth 1200.00 easy.
