Needing to seek this Charlie Sisk built Winchester Model 70 in 338 Win Mag. Hate to sell it, but have some other projects coming due and can’t keep them all.

I didn’t have this built, so I’m not certain on the history to my buying it. I can say I have shot it around 20 times between sighting in and a little bit of hog hunting. Shoots very well and is very comfortable to shoot despite being relatively lightweight for a 338.

Stainless Model 70 classic NH action. 13.5 LOP. 7# 4.6oz
24” barrel Looking for $2100

That’s very nice.
Do you know if that’s a brown?

To answer some questions I’ve gotten, the barrel is long enough that you can cut the compensator off and still have 21-22” of barrel and can thread the barrel there. That was actually a plan I had in mind for the rifle.

Open to any offers or trade offers as well, but check out page 3 of the best custom rifle builders thread to see some discussion of how nice Charlie Sisk builds these rifles. Link to that. https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/16363682/3

I wish I needed a 338, I'd buy this. The parts and excise tax are more than the asking price.

Yep, though not in the class of this fine Sisk rifle, years back i bought a classic stainless 338 WM with Boss brake, had my 'smith cut threads and recrown, iirc the barrel was 21.5 inches, worked up a load with H-4350 under the 250gr Partition at 2700 fps, the old buddy i sold that rig to has been happily killing everything in Africa, Alaska, Canada and here in the U.S. GLWTS on a fine rifle.

Let me see your quality 40mm objective scopes for trade. Something like an S&B Summit.

Pretty nice rifle. Would be perfect for an elk hunting rig. Minus the brake.. I'd cut that off..

Wish I needed it too.

Free bump.
