CW Gun Deal of the Week - Extra Nice 7mm Mag w/ 26" Barrel - Just Traded In (pics)

[Healy Arms]

This gun just came in as a trade and I thought a long-shooting Coues deer hunter would be just the right person for it.

 

It is:

 

Winchester Model 70

Blued Finish

Nice Grade Walnut Stock

7mm Rem Mag (we have 168 Berger VLD bullets or loaded ammo in stock for it)

26" Barrel

 

Comes with:

 

Leupold Bases

Leupold 30mm Rings

 

This rifle has been very lightly used. The walnut stock has nicely figured grain patterns and a deep/rich brown color. The 26" barrel maximizes the 7mm Mag round. The chamber is in great condition and the rifling is deep/bright throughout. The bolt cycles like new and the trigger breaks clean. There are NO signs of abuse on the gun anywhere.

 

Please note: ***The previous owner had an Indian Head penny inlaid in the stock on the left side of the receiver - that would be the only "flaw" I see on the gun, but some folks have already commented they like it - so to each their own. This is a very well taken care of rifle.***

 

Original retail on the gun is around $800 to $850 plus another $100ish for the rings/bases.

 

We have the gun in the case for $559.00 - Mention your a CW reader and you can take it home for $499.00 & tax. Here are the pics:

Sounds like a GREAT deal on a model 70! Wish I had the cash sitting around for that one! Someone should snatch that up quickly.

Too bad about the penny

[Healy Arms]

Yeah, but like I said - to each their own - it's like the wheels on my neighbor's truck. I wouldn't have them, but he's rollin' in high style from his perspective.

 

In reality, the rifle was so close being new it was a minor distraction.

I had a great experience at Healy, it was a fast process and the rifle is in great shape even with the penny. They also have powder and bullets in stock, way more then cabelas or bass pro, I checked since I was in Phoenix. Plus they didn't mind my two year old running all over the store after the drive up there.
