Winchester Model 70 Featherweight (243 Winchester): Loading Up to Hunt!

The Leupold FXII 6x36 scope in Talley Ultralight rings can’t be beat for quick shots from 0 to 150 yards or so!

Happy Hunting!

my first bolt action rifle and I still use it to this day, it has been one of my most loyal rifles and has never let me down!

I have a pre 64’ .270 I just had restored and now she’s ready for another 50 years of hunting. 👌

My grandfather was a national award medalist in competition shooting for many years and also a gun enthusiastic. He made me to go to 4, 5mm airgun and 22lr competitions when I was young and didn't want to go because I found it boring.
Now that he is gone and I am a member of a shooting range (strict gun laws, I can only rent weapons, luckily my grandfather left 38 collectives and hunting guns for licenced members of the family) I can only wish I took those classes seriously and got to spend time with my grandfather.

I can smell how that leather sounds. If you know, you know.

The one rifle I’ll never sell. Got mine in 30-06. Love that CRF.

[GamerGuy]

I like how you lined them up so flush. 😏 it was so satisfying for my OCD. Thank You

Being a 74 year old male I watched my Dad, after he got back from WW 2 were he was sent to the Philippines and then to Nagasaki after the bomb was dropped, pick up the Springfield 03 and make it into a deer rifle in the 30-06 caliber. At 14 years old I took my first Mule deer with that gun. I still have it. Looking back I never realized how fortunate I was to be raised when I was and in the San Fernando Valley when it was first being developed.

I have one of these in 30-06. Beautiful rifle

A wood stock bolt action rifle has always been my favorite.

[Dbunk]

There's nothing more badass than a bolt action with a cartridge holder on the stock

243 is such an underrated round I love themmmm

[Gunners_Mate_Guns]

Beautiful rifle.
I only this year picked one up, a .30-06 made in New Haven, CT in 1993!
The rifle just reeks class.

[The_sinner_Jim_Whitney]

LOVE .243. My favorite round there is, great whitetail round. Pretty damn fine for coyotes and even little varmints if loaded right, too. If I could just have one, it'd be that.

[shmeagol]

My first rifle, given to me by my dad. Though I was jealous of his Marlin 336 at the time, this was a beautiful shooter and I’ll cherish it forever.

[nmelkhunter]

Neat video. I’ve always liked the model 70 Featherweight and the 243 is certainly a great pronghorn cartridge. The leather cartridge holder is a very nice touch to a classic rifle.

[scotteger]

Gotta love that smooth Model 70 action!

[jonl]

That's a great caliber, love my Rem 700. .
