A fine sample of a New-Haven made 1960 vintage pre-64 Mod.70 .375 H&H Magnum "Express" rifle.
This model is fitted with a perfect bore n°1 medium weight 25" chrome molybdenum steel barrel that sports the traditional n°70A "Rollover Express Sight" and, under sliding protector, a n°37 3/32" Lyman gold bead on short front sight ramp.
The 13½" LOP stock, without cheek piece but with shallow Monte-Carlo comb, is made of American walnut (juglans regia) and retains its factory solid red rubber butt pad and perfect factory checkering, while the barrel, action and fittings are finished in hot salt bluing, the receiver and bolt handle being mate finished.
In order to guarantee its integrity under hunting conditions, the wood has benefited of a very careful oil refinishing.
The Winchester pre-64 "Express Rifle" represents the epitome of the professional choice; allying the best features of the proven Mauser 98' controlled feeding system to the fluidity and balance of the modern American big game rifle.
With its five shots capacity, it's one of the best all around safari rifle.
With its original sling, that rifle weights 9lb-3oz.
This pre-64 Mod.70 .375 H&H "Express" is a good opportunity to acquire one of the best rifle for professional African hunting.
