When was the first year Winchester used stainless steel barrels on M 70s ??? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J. Lane Easter, DVM A born Texan has instilled in his system a mind-set of no retreat or no surrender. I wish everyone the world over had the dominating spirit that motivates Texans.– Billy Clayton, Speaker of the Texas House No state commands such fierce pride and loyalty. Lesser mortals are pitied for their misfortune in not being born in Texas.— Queen Elizabeth II on her visit to Texas in May, 1991. | ||

I believe it was an option in 1925 on model 54's. They started using them on 220 Swifts regularaly in 1937. It was always an option for all calibers in pre 64 M70's PA Bear Hunter, NRA Benefactor | |||

Many, if not all Pre-64 70's in .220 Swift, .264 WinMag and .300 H & H were made standard with iron plated, stainless barrels and then blued. If your original barrel is blued but looks a little "frosty", it's a plated and blued stainless barrel. "I ask, sir, what is the Militia? It is the whole people. To disarm the people is the best and most effective way to enslave them" - George Mason, co-author of the Second Amendment during the Virginia convention to ratify the Constitution | |||
