Fortunately, I got my model 70 about fifteen or so years ago. It is not a pre 64 but a very good rifle that has done everything I needed it to do. The .270 has been just right for me, but now it sits in my guncase waiting for me to give it to an heir. Having lost my right eye to retinal detachment, I have been unable to shoot for the past few years. It has taken deer, bobcat and turkey. The reason for the turkey is the fall turkey season that runs parallel with deer in Virginia. Rifle is permitted.
That is more than anyone wants to know, but I do love my Winchester. I also own two Winchester Model 12 shotguns.
