Sometime in the late 70’s, a cow-worker told me he had a pre 64 model 70 that he wanted to sell. He thought it was a 300 something. My first thought was it might be a 300 Savage. It turned out to be a 300 Win Mag.

He said he wanted $250.00 for it. I told him it was worth more but he didn’t care. That was what he had in it and that was all he wanted. It had a low power Weaver scope on it. It was in almost new condition. I did buy it and still have it. I have never fired it and probably won’t.

It will go to my grandson one of these days.
