My new Big Bore!

Congrats on the beautiful new addition!
 
What a beautiful rifle!! Good for you!!
 
Beautiful piece! Congratulations on a great buy, the big bores are getting harder to find every day especially that nice.
 
Great find. NEnjoy
 
I was watching that auction and almost bid but have a couple other guns I’m chasing/hunting for, for my Winchester collection
So you know how well it was bought, let’s keep that between us lol And thanks for not driving it up!
I kinda thought someone here on the forum would be bidding against me. I owe you a beer!!!

I was kicking myself for not bidding since it went way under value. It was very tempting not to bid with 10-15 minutes left.
 
Fantastic rifle! Congrats!
 
She a beauty. But then again, which New Haven made control round feed Winchester Model 70 isn't ?

I just wish that yours had a 24" barrel. With a 22" barrel, it becomes a little challenging to achieve above 2050-2060 FPS out of a .458 Winchester Magnum (esp. with the Model 70's relatively long throat).

With a long throat, could it not be loaded long to increase available case capacity, essentially making it functionally a 458 Lott? Or is the magazine too short to allow that?
 
Beautiful rifle! And yes, I swore off gun buying at least a half dozen guns ago.
