Uncle had a featherweight pre 64 in 3006. Had a B&L Balvar 8. Great rifle. My dad had the standard 06 with the Balvar 8 and my late brother got that.

It’ll go much higher. .308 was one of the least produced calibers in the pre 64 Model 70, I believe.

I am sure it will go higher, I would probably go 200 bucks more myself.  That would be a great deer hunting gun with a nice 2-7 Leupold on it.  I am a 308 fan and even though I don't hunt anymore I kept my favorite hunting rifle a Pre-64(2nd year) Winchester M88 in 308.  I got it in the early 80's and its harvested many an animal from all over the US.

I can’t believe it’s going this cheap.

At $890 that is a bargain. Wish I could afford it. I do have a deer hunting rifle in .308 Win though.......My Remington Mohawk 600 ......love that rifle!!!!

Right on! 

My son just got one of the Model 54 Short Rifles with the 20 inch barrels not too long back, Sam.  Hopefully he'll get some use out of it.
