Owners of Winchester Classic Featherweight 6.5x55
Hi Guys,
I'm calling on anyone who owns a Winchester Classic Featherweight in 6.5x55. I sent my gun off to be refinished and the refinisher lost the magazine box. This is one of the control round feed models built on a long action. Could anyone tell me what the letter code is for the 6.5x55 magazine box. They usually have one or two letters stamped on the side of the box. My gun is blued but it wouldn't bother me to have a stainless one in it(I know that there were a lot of stainless featherweights). I already called Winchester and they weren't much help. They kept asking me what the letter code was, but I kept telling them I have no idea because the magazine is gone! I appreciate your help ahead of time.

If the one I have is right, I may have a spare I can send you. I will try to remember to look tonight to see if I can find my spare.

That's the one I have. Send me a PM with your address and I can ship it to you. If it fits, send me $5 for shipping and it's yours.

Then why do you make yourself so scarce around here? I hope you've been doing well Glen.
