Want To Sell Winchesters: 7x57 Featherweight and .416 Safari Express

Located in Montana. Not crossposted. Timestamped “I’ll take it” in the thread beats all PMed offers.

Will ship USPS Insured. Payment is open to negotiate to what buyer feels comfortable doing. I am fully willing to talk on the phone with prospective buyers.

Have two guns that I had planned to keep in my collection but unexpected purchases forced them out of the herd.

First up is a Winchester featherweight in 7x57. Don’t see them often with iron sights. It’s in good shape with a few stock presses. Only downside is it does have one crack on left hand side, middle of the stock. $850 plus actual shipping.

Second is a .416 Remington Magnum Safari Express with the factory box. It is an option with or without scope. It is in amazing condition, the former owner claimed to have hunted with it but I find it hard to believe in the shape it is. I planned to pair this with my .300 H&H but a Ruger Safari Magnum made three .416 Rigbys in my stable so I didn’t want to set up for a new caliber. Scope is a leupold VX III 1.5-5.
Without scope: $2250 plus actual shipping
With scope $2500 plus actual shipping.

Not particularly interested in trades. My main things:
Ruger 77 African .275 Rigby.
Straight(not swept back) bent bolt, Iron Sighted 7x57 Mauser.
BRNO ZKK in 7x57 OR imported by Bauskas of Kalispell MT.

Beautiful rifles. How did the stock crack on the 7x57? Good luck with the sale.

Looks like the 7x57 is push feed correct? Or is it just a jeweled bolt? Kinda hard to tell on my old phone. One nice looking 416 rem mag there, I imagine that won’t last long. I’d snag it myself if I didn’t switch gears into building a custom.

It is a push feed yes.

As far as the crack. I don’t know, I’ve never seen one crack there. When I got it I had assumed it was a cut for some reason and it was only later under close examination that I realized it was a crack.

The featherweight is a catch and release. I picked it up not long ago at a show, I had an wtb ad on here for an iron sighted 7x57. I got the Winchester and then a beautiful little custom Mauser that absolutely fits me perfectly dropped into my lap. Now an opportunity for another custom Mauser is possible so the Winchester had to go

One additional trade interest:
Leupold VX-R 2-7 is high priority on the want list
