Pre64 Model 70 custom in 34 Whelen. McMillan edge stock, Shilen barrel.

Very nice..

Nice! I plan to shoot a lot of Cast in mine -

I adopted this orphan the other day. Original owner had the stock refinished and a decelerator pad added. 5 digit Classic Featherweight.

Featherweight 308

Beuhler mounts, old Burris 4x
My retro rifle

Featherweight 30-06

Very nice, love the colors on the whelen with the low power Nikon, very practical set-up.

I can’t remember if I put this up.

P64 270 Winchester.



Sweet little rifle. Not hard to figure out why those Featherweights were so sought after.

Hey Scotty. The pre 64 fwts are still sought after.

Yes, you are dead right. I’ve got an 06 and this 270 and man, they are pretty danged nice rifles. Might take one of them this fall for Elk.

Ha ha. They are damned good. I also like the xtr fwts and classics, as well. The bacos are nice too, but seem to be fatter/preagnent looking. I don't know why Browning swayed away from some of the finer points of the original model 70?????

Without a doubt. I’ve got a Classic 6.5 Swede and an XTR 7x57 but neither feels quite as good as the P64’s. Even with a stubbier grip they feel great in my paws. The bonus part was ol Bob had originally found my 270, passed it to another friend in our circle and I was able to grab it. I love it so far. Really thinking I might hunt it this fall alongside the Mashburn. Just feels right.

Oh, agree on the Bacos. Had a 300 WSM. Super quality rifles but the stock didn’t work for me.

My 358 Win.

The zillion-dollar question... Morons..
