Good day! Welcome from SA too!
 
Welcome, certainly glad to have you here with us!!
 
Welcome to the site, and I think you'll find this to be a pretty good place to list such a rifle; albeit the members of this site really lean more towards the 243 Winchester, especially a certain member from the land of Drop Bears. ;-)
 
Welcome aboard!
 
Hello Dunderhead,

Khomas Highland Hunting Safaris of Namibia, welcomes you to the greatest forum on earth.

I have formerly owned several Winchester Model 70’s, including but not limited to the dreaded Pre-64 ones.
Indeed they are one of the world’s best hunting rifles.
Good luck with your sale.

If you continue in this forum after you sell your rifle, (I hope you continue here), it is very likely that you will spend that money on a .375 H&H or a .404 Jeffery.
I don’t read tea leaves or a crystal ball but, it’s predictable, just saying.:ROFLMAO:

Best Regards,
Velo Dog.

That would be a real shame wouldn't it!! I will say the community here is remarkably kind and welcoming, I could see how a guy could end up turning his kid's tuition fund into a super grade or 2 :ROFLMAO:

Can you elaborate on the "dreaded Pre-64s"? I always thought those were the good ones!

Kid’s tuition vs a Super Grade Model 70 …… Great minds think alike.

Ya, “dreaded Pre-64’s” was my feeble (very feeble) attempt at humor.
Indeed those were and still are one of the best hunting rifles, as are some of the newer Model 70’s these days.

The one and only reason I sold my Model 70 collection was to help pay for more hunting and fishing adventures.

Hi Joshlee0518 (please let me know if you are fine being addressed like that),

Thought I would drop you a PM. It is super exciting to plan a hunt and we are more than happy to assist you. Have you given any thought yet to which species you would like to take?

What do you hunt usually and which weapons/calibers are you using?

Look forward to swapping experiences and ideas.

Happy hunting - Daniel
Our trophy shed is filling up and we are only getting started,

Is this rifle sold? If not what is the weight of it and do you know if there is enough difference in diameter between the 35W and the 9.3 to allow for a rebore to a 9.3x62 which is what I am after?
Thanks,
Gary (Just down the road in Springfield)
