Winchester molde 71 24" barrel 1952 vintage For Sale

[elmo123]

Due to health concerns I am selling my 1952 Model 71 24 " rifle. $1800.00 face to face in the St. Louis, MO area.

It is about 80% bluing due to handling wear. It had a shotgun style butt pad and sling swivels installed when I bought it 13 years ago.

Included with the rifle is 7 boxes of silver box Winchester 200 grain Silvertips, 2 boxes are 2001 manufacture and the remaining 5 were made in 2008 according to the lot numbers.

Reloading supplies, casings and bullets are approximate in number.

230 Winchester new casings, 2 unopened bags of 50 and 2 opened bags one marked 60 the other marked 70.
200 Hornady 200 flat point bullets
600 Hornady Flextip bullets

Dies, 1 set of RCBS and 1 set of LEE dies.

1 RCBS .379 sizing die
1 RCBS 200 grain Flat point mold
1 Lyman 187 Flat point mold

1500 gas checks

I have had this rifle since 2013 and it is very accurate with cast or jacketed bullets. The recoil pad although not original makes shooting it from the bench more pleasant.

As I said earlier this is a face to face sale in the St. Louis, MO area but I am able to travel a small distance in Missouri to accommodate someone.

PM for pictures or any questions and thanks to all of the members of this forum.

Excellent. Having 4 pre-war M-71s and a pre-war 450 Alaskan-it warms the
action to see John Brownings continuation of the 1886 appreciated. One killed
a nice AK moose in 2007.
