  • I know this Pre-64 model 70 does not come with the scope but does it come with the scope mount and rings?

    I'm probably a day late, but I am very interested in your Pre-64 Winchester Model 70. Please let me know if it still available. If not, I sure would like to know who built it or restored it. Thank you. Timothy Baugh - Bridgeport, CA 760-616-0073 timgbaugh@yahoo.com

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
