Just thought some of you might like to see the slight twist they put on the Mod70 for the european market. Found it on the Winchester International website.

Great looking rifle except for that rear site. I can't wait for them to come out with some left hand models.

Thanks for the link to that site. I had almost forgotten about it. I used to check it out when the American one was down a while back.
 
That's an interesting variation. Wonder if the rear sight is for hog hunting?

The Winchester "Camel" designed by a committee. Three out of the 5 Europeans who are allowed to own it probably decided on the improvement.

"Bloody good call on that dashing new sight Nigel, damned Yanks couldn't get it right". :D
 
I visited the international site this morning (i didn't know there was one) and saw the wildcat. I want one in 17hmr. When is winchester going to make a 204 for us. I am holding out until they make one available. I would love to have a super grade in .204!
 
Rear sight?
I thought it was for hanging the rifle up on a nail. ;)
I must admit, it does take away the beauty of it.
Looks like a wart on a pretty face.
