The Winchester Model 70 Featherweight rifle in 6.5mm Creedmoor with a satin walnut stock (brand part no. 535200289) pairs classic featherweight-cut checkering and a Schnabel forearm with modern long-range performance. Winchester cold hammer-forges the free-floating, featherweight-profile 22-inch barrel with a recessed target crown, and forges the steel receiver with an integral recoil lug, bedded front and rear to eliminate zero shift. The classic Controlled Round Feed bolt uses a claw extractor for full cartridge control, and the M.O.A. Trigger System delivers zero take-up, creep, or overtravel. A three-position safety and Pachmayr Decelerator recoil pad round out the build, and the detachable magazine holds 5+1 rounds. Among classic-action bolt action rifles, this Model 70 Featherweight configuration favors hunters who want proven Controlled Round Feed reliability in a modern long-range cartridge.
