So...Bolt action rifles I only have Winchester Model 70 Classic and Current model and Weatherby Mark V.
I have twice as many Winchesters and Weatherby.
I needed a magazine follower for a Winchester Model 70, 375 H&H. I called Winchester/Browning. Very friendly people, very friendly service. However they have never stocked to part. This is the same follower from 1992 (I think, when the CRF was reintroduced to now). Like I said, very friend service department, had the had it, they would have sent it for free. But they have never stocked it, nor do they plan.
Now the rest of the story...the Happy Ending.!!!
I send an email to Weatherby about the same part. Two days later, I had a reply with a part number, a name of a person and a phone number to call.
Today I called, the part is $5.95. I ordered three. They are on their way.
Kudos to Weatherby!!! When you sell something, you have parts for it just in case!!!!
I love Winchesters, have almost every caliber they made, but not buying any more.
