Classic Winchester Model 70 Featherweight in 22-250 Rem with hammer-forged free-floated barrel, controlled-round feed, MOA trigger system, and satin walnut stock. 5-round capacity, 6 lbs 12 oz.
Since 1936, the Winchester Model 70 has set the standard by which all other bolt-action rifles are measured. The Featherweight variant maintains that legacy while offering a slightly slimmer profile and reduced weight for hunters and shooters who value portability without sacrificing performance.
Forged Steel Receiver The receiver is forged from a solid block of steel with a flat bottom profile that provides greater surface area for bedding. Two-part epoxy bedding at the front and rear keeps the action stable during firing, ensuring consistent accuracy shot after shot.
Controlled Round Feed System The Pre-'64 style controlled round feed design features a massive claw extractor that secures approximately one-quarter of the cartridge's base. This design maintains full control over the round from the moment it leaves the magazine through chamber entry and ejection. Even unfired cartridges can be extracted cleanly if not fully chambered.
MOA Trigger System Winchester's MOA trigger system represents the most precise three-lever trigger mechanism available. It delivers zero creep and no overtravel after firing pin release, contributing to exceptional accuracy and shooter confidence.
The cold hammer-forged, free-floating featherweight profile barrel is button rifled to ensure superior accuracy and durability. A recessed target crown protects the muzzle while optimizing bullet exit.
The satin-finished walnut stock features classic featherweight checkering and a Schnabel fore-end for comfortable handling. A Pachmayr Decelerator recoil pad manages recoil effectively while maintaining the rifle's classic appearance.
