Model 70 Super Grade Overview & Technical Specifications
The Model 70 Super Grade stands as the crowning achievement of American bolt-action rifle artistry, celebrated by Winchester Guns as the gold standard of luxury sporting firearms. Designed for hunters and collectors who demand museum-grade wood grain paired with flawless mechanical execution, the Model 70 Super Grade portfolio showcases the absolute pinnacle of custom-grade manufacturing. Masterpieces such as Winchester Model 70 Super Grade Maple, the brilliant exhibition Winchester Model 70 Super Grade, and the opulent Winchester Model 70 Super Grade AAA Claro exhibit an extraordinary level of aesthetic refinement and unerring ballistic precision.
Exhibition Grade Claro Walnut & Figured Maple Stocks
Every Super Grade rifle is fitted with extraordinary Grade IV/V fancy walnut, AAA Claro walnut, dark French walnut, or exhibition tiger-stripe maple. The stock architecture incorporates an ebony fore-end tip, a sculpted shadowline cheekpiece, and finely inletted two-screw sling swivel studs. Meticulously cut 20 LPI checkering provides a secure grip while highlighting the natural depth, fiddleback marbling, and chatoyancy of the hand-rubbed oil or high-gloss finish.
High-Polish Deep Blued Steel & Jeweled Bolt Body
The receiver and barrel of the Super Grade undergo extensive multi-stage hand polishing before being treated to a rich, deep high-luster bluing that glows with mirror-like clarity. The bolt slide features engine-turned jeweling that holds micro-lubricants for an extraordinarily silky bolt throw. The solid steel hinged floorplate is engraved with the iconic ‘Super Grade’ insignia, signifying an elite echelon of firearms heritage.
Target-Crown Free-Floating Barrel & M.O.A. Trigger
Beneath its breathtaking exterior lies a devastatingly accurate hunting rifle. The button-rifled barrel is fully free-floated and capped with a recessed target crown that safeguards the rifling leade against muzzle damage. The steel M.O.A. Trigger operates on a 2:1 mechanical advantage, transferring finger motion directly into a frictionless, razor-sharp sear release with zero perceptible creep, take-up, or overtravel.
Inletted Steel Swivel Studs & Engraved Floorplate Detailing
True custom rifle appointments define the Super Grade’s profile, including steel grip caps, flush-mounted sling swivel studs, and hand-fitted action screws. The one-piece bottom metal assembly stiffens the action area, enhancing harmonic consistency. The classic three-position safety locks the firing pin independently of the trigger sear, allowing safe clearance of chambered rounds before crossing fences or descending tree stands.
Heirloom Gunsmithing & Hand-Fitted Tolerances
Each Super Grade rifle receives individual attention from master gunsmiths, ensuring that wood-to-metal inletting is razor-tight and seamless along the entire tang and action perimeter. The barrel channel is precisely relieved to ensure true free-floating harmonic independence, delivering match-winning cold-bore consistency. This dedication to Old World artistry establishes the Super Grade as an enduring centerpiece of any fine firearms collection.
Investment-Grade Heritage & Big Game Performance
Chambered in a wide spectrum of proven big game cartridges from 6.5 Creedmoor and .270 Winchester to .300 Winchester Magnum and 6.5 PRC, the Super Grade effortlessly transitions from formal display cases to high-stakes trophy hunts. Each unit embodies over eight decades of Winchester pedigree, engineered to provide heirloom pride and uncompromising field performance.
