I’m not sure what make this is but definitely a nice skeleton to complete. If you can use it then $50 shipped to you.

Possibly post-1964 Winchester Model 70. Here's what Sunny Hill's looks like.

Could be from any of three or four metal smiths. Sunnyhill, Blackburn, Weisner, Others?

I don't have one to measure as it is at the 'smith's being inletted into a M70 stock. Missing bolt release and floor plate - which might be easy to find or not, depending on maker.

Looking closely, I don't think it is by Blackburn.

Comparing my 98 Mauser's Blackburn bottom metal to OP's.

The teardrop shape of trigger guards is very similar. OP's is a bit thicker. Pivot pin is almost exactly the same place. From top down it appears the floorplate levers would be same length.

The major difference would seem to be the trigger guard loop was not finished on OP's bottom metal. That's why it is thicker. I elected to leave the machining marks on mine as I thought they looked nice.

I am pretty sure Wisner has a release lever for this for about $30 and I believe a floor plate is about $80 , but I don’t know if it would be an exact fit or not.
