If it shoots good my plan is to refinish the stock and reblue . Though the stock looks rough it is all cosmetice. The finish has flacked off but no cracks or deep gouges. I think it will clean up good. I can get a new recoil pad that looks like the original. I don't think the stock has been...

I't has a 26 inch barrel The scope is an old 2.5-8 weaver and the adjustments are in the weaver bases . It is clear and the power ring adjust . I will try some hand loads when i get some dies and see how it shoots. Then I'll deciede if it will get refinnished or use the action for a 7mm stw build.

Just picked up this Pre 64 Model 70 264 Westener. It was made in 1960 and was owned by a local hunter. It has been well used but a solid gun. The Stock has had a different recoil pad added and the bluing as flacked off of the barrel. Over all this gun is about 60% The bore looks bright and...
