Gloss-finish AAAA maple stock, Featherweight barrel contour and stock profile with Schnabel forearm and cut checkering, Pachmayr Decelerator recoil pad.

In a world of walnut, maple is unique. The blonde appearance of maple more easily highlights the tiger striping in the wood grain of the Featherweight stock. The Model 70 Featherweight is a classical design of high functionality made beautiful. The light color of gloss-finished maple contrasted with the dark cut checkering on this rifle highlights the elegance of the straight lines and circular curves of the Featherweight stock.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this particular item.

Introduced in 1955, the 243 Winchester is based on the 308 Winchester case necked down. It was the first commercial cartridge added to the "308 family," with a 2.045-inch case designed to fit into Winchester's Model 88 lever action and short bolt actions. Winchester saw it as a combination "varmint and big-game" round, with an 80-grain varmint bullet at 3550 feet per second and a 100-grain deer bullet at 2960. Apparently the public saw it the same way; the 243 Winchester is the world's most popular 6mm cartridge, with current loadings running from a 55-grain varmint load at nearly 4000 fps to 108 grains. 6mm bullets hold up better in wind than smaller calibers, so the 243 remains a favorite for long-range varminting. With heavier bullets it is very effective on deer-sized game. Its attributes are accuracy, light recoil, and deadly effect; it is a standard choice for beginning hunters. Because of its popularity factory loads are legion, and most rifle manufacturers offer it. — Craig Boddington
