The Winchester Model 70 Featherweight rifle in .270 WSM with a 24-inch barrel (brand part no. 535200264) pairs the Model 70’s Pre-’64-style controlled-round-feed action with classic satin-finish walnut styling and a Schnabel forearm. Winchester forges the steel receiver with an integral recoil lug bedded front and rear, and the cold-hammer-forged, free-floating Featherweight-profile barrel wears a recessed target crown for a clean muzzle. The M.O.A. trigger system offers a crisp pull, a claw extractor and blade-type ejector deliver reliable Pre-’64-style feeding, and a Pachmayr Decelerator recoil pad tames short-magnum recoil. A hinged floorplate feeds the 3-round internal magazine, and a three-position safety gives shooters a bolt-lock option. Among walnut-stocked short-magnum bolt action rifles, this Featherweight configuration favors hunters who want classic Model 70 styling with short-magnum reach.
