As the if anyone can find a new Model 70 in 375 or 416. One of the local dealers put in an order for one for personal use two years ago. He hopes it will be filled two years from now.
Not long ago a used Model 70 in 375 went up for sale at nearly the MSRP of a new one. It sold quickly.

Wow when did that happen? Haven't been in the market for a new rifle for over 5 years.

FN and Browning has owned Winchester for a long time now and its been a slow death. At this point there really is no reliable supply of model 70s. They are making them but I have heard 2-5 years is the norm on any specific models being made and imported

I made a separate post, but I wanted a 375 Model 70. I emailed Winchester to see when they were making a run. They said August, and they kept to their word. You can now find Alaskan's and Safari Express's at some retailers online. Now for how long I don't know, but it was long enough for me to get one.
