We just found my wife's grandfathers 1953 Model 70 Featherlight in .308. Has the Redfield mount with a "The Texan" scope. No rust and only a few blemishes on the wood. Took it to a gunsmith to look it over for me and they ran 2 rounds through it. No issues. It's been in a closet, sitting in a leather rifle bag since the early 70's.
The most beautiful gun in the most useful caliber ever devised. The Model 70 in .30-06 is the quintessential hunting rifle in my opinion.
I do believe I’ll have to agree with you completely. Lol. Thank you for watching.
Beautiful rifle with the feel of history in your hands.
wonderful job on the video and good shooting there, i love the pre 64 model 70/30 06 my dad gave me his bear hunting rifle when someone wanted to take it from him and customize it without his consent, he hid the bolt for the rifle so they couldn't find it, when the time was right, he told here they were trying to take from me, but he hid the bolt and they gave up the search, he waited for the right time give to me as a family heirloom, i had to get it customize due to the damage from storage in our warehouse backroom. but oh i'm so proud to on the pre 64 model 70, i actually love the rifle and i plan to hand it down my family blood line,
Nice story. Thanks for watching
Beautiful rifle, gotta love vintage guns, and great video as always
Thank you
I love that rifle! My dad passed away the other day and I ended up with that rifle but sporting a 6x redfield. Before he died, I took the rifle out and shot through the same hole at a 100 yards with 180 gr. Silver tips. I had so much fun. I’m going to get it out now that I saw this video ♥️
My cousin had one handed down to him and we didn’t know all the working of it. This vid was awesome!! Thank you!
On the verge of art. Thx for showing and lots of envy from across the pond
Thank you. Thanks for watching
Arguably the finest hunting rifle ever made !! Previously owned 6 of them: 2 - 270's, 2 - 06's, .308 and a .243. All shot MOA at 100yds. So much for the myth of having to have a free floating barrel for that type of accuracy lol. You could polish that metal and cold reblue them. It's a very simple process and it would look so much better. 10 for 10.....dang !! You da man !! lol
Thank you for watching
Thank you. Love the patina that comes with use. Hope to get a 1950 model in a few days. $2200 Aussie $.

That’s an absolute beauty
I have a POST 64 in 308,bought for me by my grandmother in 1975.I have shot everything from a steenbuck to an eland and never had a moment's trouble, all with the nice Williams irons sights, I might add.
Sure are great rifles. Thank you for watching.
Super cool video. I have a Remington Model 700 from that time period. Just love the classics! 3006 for sure can take care of the business. :)
Beautiful rifle, man. I have the same rifle in .270 Winchester. Mine was made in 1953. It’s my main deer rifle…unless it’s raining.
Thank you. They are amazing rifles.
You sound like Arlo Guthrie. Was waiting for you to launch into a verse of Alice’s Restaurant. Great video.
Class act, both of you.
Thank you very much. And thanks for watching.
Just ordered one, I was nervous to buy a used gun for my first hunting rifle but there are so many good reviews for this

I shot my first deer with a pre-64 Winchester model 70 30-06 when I was 18 yrs old. What an incredible rifle! My father didn't hunt, he was like many of my uncles that came home from WW2 ...after all the killing they really didn't want to see guns. But my friend's father lent me his pre-64 Winchester model 70 30-06 - and what a gun! Incredible accuracy and so little kick! I wish this gun was available now! BTW, my friend's father's name is Charles O'Conner ... I wonder if he's related to Jack O'Conner?
These rifles built millions of great hunting stories.

Mine was made in I think 1941 or 1942, has some honest wear, but still beautiful. The safety is up to the left for safe, and all the way back for fire. Says 30 Govt 06 and has stripper clip guides.
The holy grail!
Great rifle wish I could find one.They do make a classic model 70 now with the Mauser action.
Nice rifle....good video.....thanks for all the info
You’re welcome. Thank you for watching
Great vid! I have both pre and post, both models shoot well to awesomeness. I prefer pre’s. Great explanation of the cost cutting manufacturing to compete. Now they returned to the claw extraction and controlled feed, curious about the new rifles but I’ve already got the best. Thank you
Thats a nice looking Rifle 🙂👍
Thank you
I have a '67, and a '71, both in 30-06. Some day I'll have a pre '64. Thanks for sharing
Good luck in your search. They are all fine rifles.
I got a pre 64 model 70 in 30-06 as well bought it for 825$ didn’t have the original stock but the one on it is super beautiful and was refinished very accurate and reliable and bolt is buttery smooth I put a old model redfield scope on it which surprisingly looks very new and sight picture is very clear has a circle dot in the middle of the crosshair.

It's perfection when rifles were built right . but I would want mine in 270 win.
I have a pre 64 model 70, it’s chambered in 300 H&H all original. I use it to hunt elk, but for deer I was thinking about trying to find one in 270 or 30-06 beautiful rifle of yours btw

Nice. Have a K8 and a couple of K6s on guns from the period myself.
Love those old scopes
Thanks for this video. My r700 shoots sub MOA, so I can't see getting one- unless it's for the sheer joy of owning such a beautiful rifle... the 'Rifleman's Rifle'.
Thanks for watching.
My dream Rifle. 😍😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

I inherited one, Made in 1947 with a type II transitional receiver (some people are telling me it's a pre-war.. but to my knowledge the war ended in 45). Friend of my father bought it out of the Montgomery Ward Catalog, It's almost too good for me to take to the range. My father shot deer and elk with it with Winchester White Box. I need to know if there's better "store bought" ammo for it. I'm thinking Hornady SuperPerformance.
Trying to switch out my pachmayr swing base on a unerl hawk 4x. Wondering if i should keep the unerl on there or pair with an extra leupold vx 3i 1.5- 5 i got laying around. Thoughts??
@mountaineerfirearms1098 beautiful rifle. Where did you get your leather scope covers from? Did you make them yourself?
Wish I had appreciated the Weaver scopes 40 years ago.
How do you preserve the rifling ? It's been half a century of use the rifling must be starting to wear.
The pre 64 stocks just seem to fit perfectly for me anyway I got a 300 H&H at a good price 2 years ago and I am now getting a 30-06 made in 1959 the 300 was made in 55 I know the 300 will clover leaf the bullets at a 100 yards with handloads
Great shooting rifles for sure. Thanks for watching
Issued this weapon at 10 years of age
I own the identical rifle, but I’m lacking the leather scope caps. Where did you get that?
Also, I suspect that my rifle may have been shortened some point but I’d like to compare it to yours. Can you tell me the overall length of your rifle and then the length of just the stock?
I got a pre64 in 30-06 from a friend, who had inherited from his father. That man was short and cut the stock. I 'd like to receive a hint how to get a New stock.
The one I have is from 1958
Can i ask you what is the serial nr of your rifle because i dont no how old myne is. My nr is 90...
I’m sorry I’d rather not just post the number online.

He could try Google by asking for serial number year of manufacture
I have a one manufactured in 1936. S/N 345. Anyone have an idea on price?
Those scope rings are wronglly mounted.!!
The little fastening wheel screws, shoud be correctlly mounted in the LEFT hand side of the gun.!!
NOT on the RHSD.
The Pre-64, Winchester M-70, IT'S SIMPLY THE BEST.!!!
PERÍOD.!!!
I prefer them on the right side. Do you have an actual scientific reason for why they should be on the left? I’m not seeing why it would make a difference besides personal preference. The gun shoots less then 1 MOA with box ammo so I know it’s not causing accuracy issues. What would be the exact reason you say they should be on the left. In other words what’s the difference. If I turn them around and sight it in I’m sure it will do the same thing it’s doing now. If there’s a scientific good reason for me to swap then I sure will, but if this is just your personal preference I think I’ll stick to having them on the side of my personal preference. Thank you for watching
I put mine on the "right"side. Keeps all the projections, Bolt handle, safety lever, turret windage cap, and mount screws all on the same side of the gun. On some guns the mount screws get in the way of loading shells into the magazine, then I put them on the left side.

I'm about to buy one for 1200
