The hardwood pistol-grip stock adds both comfort and control, providing a solid foundation for prone, offhand, and benchrest shooting alike. Winchester’s attention to detail is evident in the stock’s clean lines and balance, which complement the rifle’s heavy target barrel and precision sights. The Model 52B stands as an important chapter in the evolution of American smallbore competition rifles, admired not only for its performance but also for its craftsmanship and legacy. Today, it remains a highly respected and collectible firearm, valued by shooters who appreciate classic match rifles built to exacting standards.
