Description
The Winchester M70 is a bolt action in .308 / 7.62 NATO with a 22" barrel, a 1:12 twist and 5-round capacity.
This barrel length is a common compromise: enough to develop most of the cartridge's velocity while staying manageable to carry. That is slower than the usual twist for this cartridge, so it favors lighter bullets; very heavy projectiles may not stabilize. It comes drilled & tapped, so it is ready to take an optic without extra machining.
The .308 is commonly chosen for hunting, target shooting and general use. Probably the most versatile centerfire cartridge available – ammunition is everywhere, and it handles most North American game.
This is a serialized firearm. It ships to a licensed dealer near you rather than to your door, and you complete the transfer there with a Form 4473 and a background check. State and local rules govern what can be shipped where, so check yours before ordering – and if you are unsure, ask us first.
Top looks and even better performance. The look of the Tungsten Cerakote finish is extraordinary. This Model 70 has the addition of a Bell and Carlson synthetic stock with sculpted cheekpiece and TrueTimber VSX finish. It's a Model 70 for extreme conditions and for serious, tough hunts where you need a rifle that can handle the elements and maintain top performance.
