I forgot to add: same stock measurements and probably other bespoke measurements, same trigger type, same bolt stroke length, in two smooth feeding, great classic calibers--how much better could it even get performance-wise?!Much better than original!
LeRoy also cleaned up the triggers, they are the best trigger on any hunting rifle I’ve had!I forgot to add: same stock measurements and probably other bespoke measurements, same trigger type, same bolt stroke length, in two smooth feeding, great classic calibers--how much better could it even get performance-wise?!
WowwwSome of you may remember that I had a 1950 Transition Pre-64 Winchester M-70 in 375 H&H restored and restocked for me by LeRoy Berry at Canyon Creek Custom Gun Stocks that I posted about here
https://www.africahunting.com/threads/my-“old-but-new”-winchester-pre-64-375-h-h.78449/
And then promptly bought a 300 H&H that I sent to LeRoy and posted here
Well little brother has come home!!! I give you the 300 H&H!!!I picked up this 1950 Winchester M70 transition rifle in .300 H&H today… I bought it to go along with the 1950 M70 .375 H&H transition I acquired several years back and had customized this year and posted about…
This .300 H&H is not in the same immaculate condition as the .375 was but is still in good overall condition. It has zero pitting and rust, and still has very good rifling that does not have any throat burn or corrosion and has nice bright bore with crisp shiny grooves…
The stock looks as it has been taken good care of but has seen many many years in the field! It has a aftermarket...

I still need to mount the scope and QD Talley rings and bases. I’ll post pics when done…
Here are the two brothers together! Both 1950 transition magnum length Winchesters, one in 300 H&H and the other in 375 H&H, both stocked from the very same Turkish Walnut stock blank, and both serial #’d just 1015 apart!

Mountain Hunting a light weight is nice for sure but on Safari the tracks will carry your gun if you want lolyour rifles are really nice but at my age I been thinking about a carbon light weight.
Gonna add Pre-64’s 30-06, 308 Mannlicher, 270, and 220 Swift then I’m out lolThose are awesome. Just need to add one in .243 and .220 Swift for deerslayers. . Seriously great work by Mr. Berry!
