I need a winchester researcher to tell me when #2626865 in Model 1300 was made. It is 12 guage, 28 inches, has winchokes, has checkering on the stock and forearm, and is chambered for 2 3/4 and 3" shells. Thanks

    I recently purchased a winchester model 100 in 308 win. I was wondering if anyone could tell me the year of manf. and possible value in 85-90% condition. Serial # 11197x. As always thanks for your replies.

    can 38-55 brass be trimmed to fit the 375 win, they look quite similar on paper, never worked with either

    Did the Model 70 lightweight rifles ever have a documented problem with the safety and misfires? Somewhere in the back of my mind I recall a problem when the gun was put on or taken off safety? I dont ever remember Winchester acknowledging one or having a recall.

    If you are speaking of pre 64 model 70s, I have not heard of any problems in th 50 plus years I've been shooting and collecting them.
    I have several pre 64 model 70 Feather Weights, and have had no problems.
    If you are talking newer model 70s, I have no idea.

    It is the Remington Model 700 that had issues.

    Bert is exactly right about the Remington 700s, I've seen more than one of them go off when the bolt was closed. Brings a whole new meaning to mussel control.

    Also, they had a problem with the Rem 600 and early XP 100s.
