For sale: Winchester M70 Classic with a Shilen barrel chambered in 257AI. I didn't build it so I'm lacking a lot of details.
The barrel is inscribed with Shilen in script as they do and does indicate the chambering properly. The rilfe is built on a short action and if I measured correctly has a Sporter contour barrel cut at 23". It sits in a M70 Featherweight stock that I sanded out the barrel channel to fit. The stock was new take off with a red pad before I augered it out and is in very good shape. The barreled action is in good shape. It's definitely been used before I got it. The barrel has some wear marks that were likely cold blued. Doesn't look bad but not perfect either. (you be the judge when I post pics)
Currently has a Burris FFII 3-9 scope mounted in Leupold dual dovetail bases and rings. All of which can be bought with the rilfe for an extra $150 if you want it.
Asking $950 or BRO shipped and insured to the lower 48 for the rifle alone. Will ship from my FFL to yours.
I know anyone interested in going to want to see pics and I'll try to get some up tonight. In the meantime feel free to PM with any questions or offers. I'll do my best to answer questions quickly and accurately.
I have fire formed brass, 257 Roberts brass, RCBS 257 AI dies and a bunch of 257 bullets available too (only if the rifle sells).
It was going to be a project but I built something else instead. If it doesn't sell, I'll just build off the action another time.
