Winchester 6.8 Western 24" 3+1 (Bolt) 535238299

The Winchester Model 70 has set the standard for bolt-action rifles since 1936, renowned for its precision and reliability. Featuring a famous 3-position safety, this rifle is designed for easy operation with the thumb of the firing hand, ensuring the firing pin is lifted away from the sear. The forged steel receiver, crafted from a solid block of steel, boasts a flat bottom profile to provide a larger surface area for bedding. This receiver is bedded with a two-part epoxy at both the front and rear, preventing any internal shifting during firing.

The Model 70's classic controlled round feed (CRF) bolt design includes a massive claw extractor that grips about one-quarter of the cartridge base, maintaining full control from magazine release to ejection. This design allows for the extraction of an unfired cartridge even if not fully chambered. The M.O.A. Trigger System is the world's most precise three-lever trigger system, enhancing accuracy and fit. A blade-type ejector offers complete control over case ejection, while the free-floating barrel, button-rifled for superior accuracy and durability, ensures consistent performance.

Chambered in 6.8 Western with a 24-inch barrel length and a 3+1 capacity, the Winchester Model 70 is equipped with a fixed Bell & Carlson stock and a muzzle brake. The steel receiver is drilled and tapped for sights, and the rifle features a 1:8" twist rate. Ideal for right-handed shooters, the stock finish is a sleek gray, and the metal finish is a classic blued/black. The overall length of the rifle is 44.25 inches, making it a versatile and reliable choice for any shooting enthusiast.
