The Model 70 XTR Sporter shown here is a USRAC-era rifle from the 1980s with a 24 inch blued steel barrel and receiver. It retains factory-style sighting arrangements, with a hooded ramp front sight and a barrel-mounted rear-sight provision, adding versatility alongside the mounted scope.
Chambered in .300 H&H Magnum, this configuration is less common within the XTR Sporter line, and Winchester no longer offers this chambering. For buyers seeking a classic belted magnum in a Model 70, this example stands out for its chambering and period-correct features.
The right-hand bolt features a jeweled bolt body, and the rifle feeds from an internal box magazine with a hinged floorplate. Stated capacity is 3+1. The receiver is drilled and tapped, with two-piece bases and rings installed.
The full-size walnut stock has cut checkering, a pistol-grip profile, sling swivel studs, and a Winchester-logo recoil pad with black spacer. Length of pull is 13.5 inches, providing a traditional sporter fit.
A Nikon 3-9x40 riflescope with BDC reticle is included and mounted. This pairing complements the rifle’s factory sight provisions and the .300 H&H Magnum chambering, offering practical magnification for a wide range of hunting distances.
