For Sale Pre-64 Winchester M70 .375 H&H

I was very tempted by this rifle until a friend agreed to sell a rifle to me I’ve been wanting for years. Also, I don’t think you mentioned Talley scope bases are already installed and coated. I bet if I got my hands on it and was able to verify good accuracy, I’d probably still buy it! Good Luck!

Yes, thank you, Talley mounts are on and coated. I just dont have the rings. Congrats on your other rifle purchase!
 
I really really like those Echols stocks. The design and geometry for mitigating recoil, with the correct LOP is outstanding. Have one on a 458 build and it’s excellent. Maybe one day we’ll be able to buy em from McMillan directly…
 
Hi Tyguy,

Beautiful M70 pre-64. I have one, in its origial dressing, made in 1954. By the way, I think the bases are for the first Warne mounting sistem, the Warne Premier. The same I have in my M70.
Good luck with the sale!

Yup. As I mentioned in another thread. They are great stocks designed by a someone who truly knows his business.
 
A few question, if I may. …. Who did the custom work installing the rear F/L sight and the barrel banded front sight? Neither are factory.

What’s the round count on this rifle?

Did you have pics of the sight-in target at 50- or 100-yds? Thanks.
Hi Jack,

I don't know for a fact but there is a chance NECG did the work as those are where the sights came from.

I do not have an accurate round count nor sight in targets unfortunately. All I know is what the previous owner, who I believe owned it for at least 25 years before I purchased it. He hunted with it and kept it in a safe. He said it was very accurate. But I do not have any visual proof of the unfortunately.

Thanks,

Tyler
 
This looks like a very nice rifle and a motivated seller. This is a good price for what is ooffered. I have a M70 .375 H&H and it is very accurate and easy to shoot.
 
A good rifle for Alaska.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John buzzardhilllabs@hotmail.com

Out of all the different color variations of Impala the black Impala just stands out with its beautiful pitch black hide.

Impala is one of the animals you will see all over Africa.
You can see them in herds of a 100 plus together.

This excellent ram was taken with one of our previous client this past season.
