Needless to say it has been more than a task to locate any bolt action rifle from Winchester, namely the featherweight with wood stock. There are not many, if any dealers that have any and those that have a limited quantity (One) will not send any pictures nor are interested in selling. Those that I have seen photos of have a few distractions: wood blemishes or wood that not any wish to have and bluing problems. Many hide the critical areas in displaying the photos: some chopping off the butt stock, all not showing the breech or bolt face. One seller on Gunbroker said the bluing discoloration was from fingerprints. Well, if any believe that I cannot determine fingerprints from discoloration, this is merely conjecture and foolhardy. And, all offer no returns, sold as is and final. What I believe is that those models being sold are ones that not anybody wishes to buy. I've searched GunsInternational, Guns.com, GunsAmerica, and every possible outlet online. I even called local gun shops in my area and there is no response. One person (Nagels) was offering one but said he did not know how to send pictures to email. After looking up the reviews, I found Nagels to be a shady seller with many negative comments. I’m certainly ‘not’ purchasing without seeing photos, even if “new”. Many leave the details out, what’s in the box or date of manufacture. Apparently, this is business 101. I was almot ready to purchase on Gunbroker, but the person who had the item was too greedy for me. I said to conduct the transaction away from Gun broker, saving him $250.00 plus an additional 3.5% he would have to pay. He agreed, but would not budge on the price even when it stated “Make Offer“. Anyway, the price was $1229.69 shipping included ($60.00); somewhat high for I ship guns as well and I know the prices. I offered him $1200.00 and apparently he was not accepting that sum. He can take the item with him for I’m not purchasing there.

Anyways, I called Winchester and they said they're still being manufactured. I said but no one has them. Winchester said to call a dealer and they could order. I tried that avenue and was unsuccessful. Could any provide insight here or point me in the right direction. All replies are welcome.

They show up in the online shops in waves (everyone gets them at the same time) and disappear very quickly.

I've got an unfired M70 FWT (243) for sale in the classifieds for significantly less than you were trying to spend on GB. Take a look!

What chambering are you looking for? You may want to post a WTB in the classifieds here. There are a lot of guys here with model 70's.

The .243 is a good caliber. I'll take a look but was seeking a little more energy and range.

A .270. Looked at the 6.5 PRC and 300 WSM and I still revert back the .270. I believe the 6.5 PRC wears a 24" barrel which is a good point. However, the . 270 fitted with a 22" barrel is close to the 6.5 PRC and 300 WSM. Maybe a bit more energy with the other two and a little less wind drift. Not really seeking to hit anything at 1400 yds. so it is somewhat irrelevant. The twist being 8 with the other two is insignificant to me. A 10 spiral works fine. My .300 Win Mag. is deadly accurate and has plenty of stopping power. In terms of looking on the classifieds is a possibility but why would any be selling "new", only to make a profit? The BACO guns seem to have very nice inletting and metal to wood seems excellent, more so than my New Haven model. Thanks very much.

I believe I've seen it. A very high price for a 6.5 PRC, around $1599.00 isn't it? What's their price on the .270 and could you provide the link? Knowing Cabella's and being a member, I'm sure the price is high. I found the info :Limited. If you're there, could you take a look for me or get some photos. I'll pay you a finders fee.

Yep, good luck with your search. Hopefully there is one out there that is very nice and less money than what you were quoted. That seems high to me. The new model 70's are pretty nice. Some nicer than others though, as you already know..

* Yes, the price is high but there are far worse, namely JD Outfitters out of Oklahoma. I believe he enjoys the action but it is only for short time. He never answered me via email and when I called him last year, he was just as adamant.

I've already found and posted the info. "Limited" Thank you very much. i just asked the person who lives in Washington to take a look for me. I'll pay him a finders fee. Again, to me it's about the wood. You gotta have the right wood. OOPS, It's you. I'll pay you a finders fee if they have it (.270) and accompanied pics. Can I send you a PM?

Nice piece and price. However, I'm set on the .270. All my logistics are centered on or around the .270. I wish not to spend another load of money for accessories. I'm set for the .270. Extremely nice rifle from what I can see.

I’ve been happy and had great results from the FN guns and most have had good to great wood on them.

If you could find a 2008 limited, they have exceptionally nice wood.

I contacted Cabela's and the item is 'out of stock'. Back to the drawing board. Here is a pic whereas the seller said the discoloration in the bluing was 'fingerprints' > Gunbroker. I'm sure many are adept with firearms on this forum. You tell me, what that discoloration appears to be; fingerprints or discoloration?

Seems like if I actually cared about selling and it really was just fingerprints... I'd just send you a photo of them wiped off. Seller might be telling the truth but if they aren't willing to lift a finger for sale I'd probably steer clear anyway.

Yeah, how hard is it to wipe a rifle down before taking pics? Or taking new pics for a potential buyer? Not very..

Sounds to me like sellers just looking for low maintenance buyers! Why jump through hoops when buyers are easy to find? Why sell cheap when you can sell high? I don't have to like it but I get it. GD

For sure!

Or some of the limited Featherweights that had upgraded wood. Can’t remember what they called them but some had some nice wood.

I’d still be down for a SS Featherweight in the dark maple stock. I was such a dumbshit for not getting the first one I saw.

Cabelas is a big corporation selling buying and thousands of rifle each year. They're not going to concede to the special request of each and every potential buyer from across the nation. Yeah, they should wipe down their guns before the photography session, and they should take better pictures, too. But it is more profitable (i.e., consuming fewer corporate resources) to write-off the small group of critical buyers as too maintenance-intense, and focus on selling to the average Joe. They'll make pretty much the same profit with far fewer hassles.

A person wanting good customer service is going to have to go to their LGS, pay the up-charge, and be patient while stuff is ordered.

Cabelas' biggest issue is that half the time they let you buy something that isn't actually in stock and inform you a week later. So maybe they should take all the easy opportunities to win points with customers? 😂😵

Cabelas absolutely should. But, sadly, Cabelas ain't Cabelas, no more.

What is your opinion on this stock and the wood to metal fit. Seems to be somewhat proud. All opinions are welcome.

Yeah, how hard is it to wipe a rifle down before taking pics? Or taking new pics for a potential buyer? Not very..

Exactly. You read well and have insight.


Oh, I made a college writing instructor cry and leave the class once... You have no fn clue..

I believe I've seen it. A very high price for a 6.5 PRC, around $1599.00 isn't it? What's their price on the .270 and could you provide the link? Knowing Cabella's and being a member, I'm sure the price is high. I found the info :Limited. If you're there, could you take a look for me or get some photos. I'll pay you a finders fee.
