I don't know how.....but this evening just came out of nowhere and I wasn't finished with as many as I liked, so I got some going without adding the pictures. Now....I am adding pictures to the LAST THING for tonight!


Go look.....I'm going to go finish before I start crying.

I think your Winchester model 70 in 30-06 is a standard sportster not a deluxe as they have white line spacers and a black tip on the stock. I could be wrong as I was wrong once before.....anyways it's a beautiful gun.

I looked up the deluxe and I ran into a picture with 4 examples of these....the Super Grade....Featherweight....Sporter....and Extreme Weather. Looking at what I found the Supergrades have the ebony endcap, but the delux was just nice checkered wood. If you look at 100 of them 1/2 will be listed as deluxe without anything different about them that I can see.

Here is a shortcut to the pertinent info from the link I posted....."Four Grades
The Model 70 will be introduced in four different trims-Featherweight Deluxe, Sporter Deluxe, Extreme Weather SS and the top-of-the-line Super Grade. For pricing and specs, see here."

You are correct again. This is one of the new ones and I was referencing one of the old model 70 deluxe.
