I am a great fan of Winchester 22s and your write up was very good. You're right in the fact that there are many small changes and differences in the 69 and 69As over the years. There is a long running thread on the 69s and their differences on rimfire central.I have two, a Dual Sight 69 that has British proofs and a 69A With Peeps and leather sling. The 69A though is not an actual Match Target, because it is chambered for all .22 short, long and long rifle. The true Match Target is chambered for only .22 long rifle and has a different number of lands and grooves. Here is a picture of my Dual Sight 69, the second picture shows the British Proofs. It's got about as much writing on it as a Ruger pistol.





Plese post any other .22 information you have, .22s are my passion.
