model 70
I just purchased my first Model 70. I'm really impressed! I am thinking about another one in a synthetic stock for heavy woods and brush. I like the pre 64 bolt. Can anyone tell me what Serial # is the break on the action. Where does the new/old style start. I was told they started in 94 making the pre64 design again. Any help appreciated. Where did the pre-64s serials stop at. or a web sight that gives me the Numbers. Thanks

Picked up a Winchester MOdel 70 today. Something to maybe shoot some varmints. Anyway was wondering about a DOM, serial number# G1130xx It also says 375 H&H Mag, super express.
Any help is greatly appreciated0 -
HI, the local Wally world should also carry something like that in a 700 adl package. My advice is save and get what you really want unless you need the gun right now. 0 -
The above is good advise, get what you really want. The special package sets that a disposed of at the big box store are not know for good resale value. If you end up getting $0.50 back on each dollar you will probably be doing ok when you upgrade later. Personally I like the current production Model 70 Classic, but I'll bet the special is for their push feed type action, not the remake of the pre 1964 controled round feed style. The pre 64 style has better resale as folks are using them as the basis for custom rigs. 0 -
I too would keep saving my nickels and wait for the 700. 0
