Winchester 70 Super Grade
Bo Action RIfle 300 Winchester Magnum 26" Barrel 3 Round French Walnut Stock Blued Receiver
Its highly polished, deeply-blued steel and finely checkered, fancy grain walnut stock with shadowline cheekpiece define the timeless grace and elegance of the Model 70 Super Grade. It is beautifully functional, placing your eye in perfect alignment with the scope. A one-piece steel bottom metal adds extra rigidity to the Super Grade's stock and action for improved accuracy, and inletted sling swivel studs allow you to attach your favorite sling. The forged steel receiver with integral recoil lug is bedded front and rear to eliminate shifts in zero for exceptional long range accuracy. A Pre-64 Style controlled round feed with claw extractor fully controls the cartridge from magazine, to chamber, to ejection. The decorative steel crossbolt adds strength, rigidity and a touch of stylish refinement. Inside is the M.O.A Trigger System, with zero take up, zero creep and zero overtravel for outstanding accuracy. The Model 70 Super Grade has a Pachmayr Decelerator Recoil Pad for optimal protection against felt recoil.

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.
The 300 Winchester Magnum, introduced in 1963, was the last of Winchester's family of (nominally) 30-06-length belted magnums based on the shortened 300 H&H case. It followed the 458, 264, and 338 Winchester Magnums, but has an unusually short neck to maximize powder capacity. Initial reception was mixed; critics faulted the short neck, and it was caught up in Winchester's unpopular post-1964 manufacturing shift. It took time, but the 300 Winchester Magnum has not just survived but prospered. Today it is the world's most popular cartridge that wears a "magnum" suffix. It is manufactured by all ammunition manufacturers, chambered by all riflemakers who have a suitable platform, and often employed by military snipers in the Special Operations community. Though not the fastest "fast 30-caliber" it is fast, accurate, incredibly available, and well-suited to virtually all non-dangerous game hunting throughout the world.
