Pains me to post this, but planning for an Africa hunt and this is a casualty of the budget.

Asking $3800 for the rifle and scope.

Customer Winchester Model 70 in 7x57 Mauser. Rifle was built by Satterlee Arms. Barrel is a K&P 22” - slightly heavier profile. Stock is a Super Grade stock, one piece bottom metal is aluminum.

Scope is a Leupold VX-5 2-10x42 in gloss Talley rings and bases.

Total rifle/scope build is 9lb 13oz which makes it a very easy rifle to shoot!

How does it shoot??
Quite well - have found some great loads with 154gr Interlocks and 143 gr Hammer bullets.

Always intended to work up a load with 175gr partitions but never found time to get after it. Would have also loved to try 160gr Swift A Frames, but finding A Frames is quite the challenge lately!

Hello Doug,
I am Philippe from France and plan to go hunting Caprivi in 2026, Oct.
I have read on AH you had some time in Vic Falls after hunting. May I ask you with whom you have planned / organized the Chobe NP tour and the different visits. (with my GF we will have 4 days and 3 nights there)
Thank in advance, I will appreciate your response.
Merci
Philippe

Hi Walden. Good morning from England, Chris here (The Englishman!) from Croatia. Firstly it was a pleasure to meet you and Michelle - a fellow Sanderson! I have finally joined AH as I enjoy it very much. Glad you enjoyed the hunt and your write up which I read on AR was very good indeed. I am sending on WhatsApp pics from Bojan of some of the animals hunted recently. Take care and best regards. CS.
