Winchester Ranger .270...needs stock

I have a buddy who owns a Winchester Ranger in .270. Unfortunately he broke a large piece of the stock off toward and including the butt plate. I told him I could find one on-line, however, I don't know if it is a Model 70 (someone suggested it is a Model 670) or what, thus I don't even know where to begin. The serial # is G1667***. Likewise I don't know how old it is either, whether it is a Pre 64 or Post 64. Any info or leads would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Bruce

    I have one from about 1970, mine is a model 670. Yes there are replacement stocks but very few companies make them. The 670 is a real low end model,stock will cost more than the gun is worth

    Probably a Model 70 Ranger. Hardwood stock, no checkering, matte bluing (kind of looks like a blue parkerizing). Bought one for my brother in the early 90's, in 30'06. Cheap version of the Mod. 70.

    The model 670 is basically a model 70 without the 3 position wing safety and/or the controlled round feeding. the action dimensions are basically the same.

    Try on the Want to Buy forum,..or try on the classifieds at www.accuratereloading.com by placing a WTB (want to buy) listing. Quite a few of these things around,..and most people will part with them or part them out due to the lower value.

    why chase the game when the bullet can get em from here?....
