No combination of rifle and cartridge has a more storied history in American lore than the Winchester Model 70 chambered in the flat shooting, hard hitting, easy recoiling .270 Winchester. Popularized by the late Outdoor Life writer Jack O'Connor, this combination of both rifle and cartridge are as sought after today as they were four generations ago for good reason; it looks beautiful, shoots great, and brings home the game. Take a look at this latest version made by FN Herstal that, with its epoxy bedding and free floated barrel is actually more accurate than the venerable and highly collectible Pre-'64. Then, we'll quickly load some ammo for it and take it to the range for some shooting fun!
