Description
The Winchester Model 70 Extreme TrueTimber VSX 6.5 PRC Rifle is a bolt-action hunting rifle with a 24-inch barrel, Tungsten Cerakote metalwork and a threaded muzzle brake (brand part no. 535244294). Winchester builds it for difficult hunting conditions, with a Bell and Carlson synthetic stock in TrueTimber VSX camouflage and a sculpted cheekpiece that lines the eye up with a scope. The Cerakote resists damage and corrosion better than traditional blueing. It suits long shots and rough weather on western big-game hunts.
Key Specifications

- The rate of twist is 1:8, as listed by Winchester for this rifle.
- A muzzle brake is fitted to the barrel to tame recoil and muzzle rise.
- The brake sits on 9/16×24 barrel threads, so the muzzle is threaded for the brake or other compatible devices.

- The Bell and Carlson synthetic stock has a sculpted cheekpiece and a TrueTimber VSX camouflage finish.
- The magazine holds 3 rounds and is closed by a hinged floorplate.
