Pre-64 Winchester Model 70 Super Grade Featherweight Bolt Action Rifle in 270 Winchester

Manufactured in 1957 (receiver). It is chambered in 270 Winchester and it has been estimated that very few Super Grade Featherweight Model 70s were produced. Hooded ramp front sight and folding adjustable leaf rear sight on a barrel marked with the Winchester legend on the left side. The Winchester factory oval proof is stamped on the barrel and receiver and the floor plate is marked "-SUPER GRADE-". Jeweled bolt, extractor and follower with the bolt numbered to the gun. The receiver is tapped for scope/sight mounting, straight receiver tang and late safety. The high comb pistol grip stock has multi-point checkering, an ebony forend cap, a metal grip cap, a cheekpiece, quick release sling swivels and a checkered aluminum buttplate.

Very fine as professionally refurbished/restored. The rifle retains nearly all of the blue finish showing the slightest handling marks. The stock is near mint showing the slightest handling marks with crisp checkering. Mechanically needs work. Safety is frozen in the fire position.
