Winchester Model 70 Safari Express .416

I received a message asking if rifle is still available. Just so we’re clear IT IS STILL FOR SALE. The individual that was going to buy it changed his mind.

wish I could edit the original post to indicate this.

Thanks!
 
It was a pleasure speaking with you Justin. I look forward to doing business with you.
 
Good! Those late New Haven M70s are great rifles- maybe the best of all Win 70s. Have had two of them in 416 RM. Great rifle in great caliber. I pillar bedded both and they do not change POI. Plus, one of the smoothest actions for large calibers- both I’ve had cycle empty cases as smoothly as any loaded ammo, with any bullet. And IMO the best trigger ever designed for a hunting rifle. :)

I'm glad he bought it and removed the temptation...that is a fine gun, and I'm glad you allowed me to shoot it!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
