My bad, I saw your cash in MT part, that’s a start

What part of Montana

Wait, and end the infamous Winchester model 70 guessing game listing?

It appears to be a sporter with iron sights. A pushfeed and probably made in the late 90's, so wouldn't even be considered an XTR. Post XTR era. I may be wrong since it's based off of 1 crappy picture. A picture of the other side, would have been better/more telling..

Worst rings known to man. I damaged a number of scopes back in high school using those. That was 30 years ago..

Fort Benton

Thanks

Hmmm, the OP joined in December 2017, but has only 4 posts in 5 years, but is still considered a new member. 🤔. How does that happen?

It is by post count.

Thanks appreciate your negative response.

Only on this sight ever now and then, probably because it is so full of negative words. Just trying to sell a nice gun at a reasonable price!

Decent number of hacked accounts and scammers recently; some will be skeptical. But it’s not like you are shipping! 😬

Nice gun and post more pics if you can.

Let the negative go. If someone wants to do more than accuse they will get ahold of you and get the particulars.

The push feed 70s are always under valued
The weaver rings in my experience have been rock solid. I don’t prefer there look but have several rifles with weavers when I bought them and left them on as they work fine
Nikon scopes are some good glass have had one on my truck/farm gun for close to 30 years. Can remember the last time I had the caps off for an adjustment. It’s always dead on and kills lots of random farm vermin.
Good luck

Thanks brother.

Thanks for the input. I really don't know what you all mean by push feed? I have just shot stuff with it.

Thanks

Winchester switched to the push feed actioni n 1964 and went away from the controlled round feed action. They brought it back years later in the 90s I believe as the classic action. Push feeds were less desirable but I have had several, most had excellent accuracy. You have a nice rifle package at a fair price. Good luck on your sale wish I had the funds currently.

The push feed is what Remington and Savage bolts use, many others too. Most Mausers, early Winchesters as the above post states and some of the Rugers use controlled round feed. What brought it about was the need for the round to be controlled after it left the magazine box so it would not fall out of the action. You can cycle the bolt on one of these with the rifle laying on it's side or upside down and the round will not fall out. That's not the case on push feed rifles. Nice rifle you have too!
