One of the standout features of the Model 70 Featherweight is its Grade I checkered walnut stock, which is not only aesthetically stunning but also ergonomically designed for comfort and stability. The angled comb stock design, complete with a classic Schnabel fore-end and a satin finish, stays true to the original Featherweight’s heritage while enhancing handling. Winchester’s M.O.A. Trigger System ensures a crisp, predictable pull with zero take-up, zero creep, and zero overtravel, resulting in exceptional shot control and accuracy. Additionally, the one-piece alloy bottom metal enhances rigidity, contributing to overall accuracy and durability. To help mitigate recoil, especially in a caliber like .308 Winchester, Winchester has incorporated a Pachmayr Decelerator recoil pad, reducing shooter fatigue and improving follow-up shot consistency. Whether for big-game hunting or target shooting, the Winchester Model 70 Featherweight continues to uphold its legacy as one of the finest bolt-action rifles ever produced.
