I believe the Winnie will be a bit more. The bolt is on the wrong side I am sure but it is one I've always wanted.

It's a Winchester M-70 not a Remington-796 Aiala but thank you.

Ron, I had a lefty M-70 SS Classic in 338Win when I closed but I sold it to a friend here.

OUCH!!!!  I looked up the prices and they run from $900 for a well used one to $2500 for a NIB one, and not a pre 64!!!   I paid less than $500 for it in the 90's.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

Looks like a method as been found to fund your trip...hope it pans out.

Ummmm ..... Should this be moved to / continued on the firearms board? :-\

If moving to the firearms board gets this sold and Lee on the trip, then I agree ;D ;D ;Whatever it takes to hear Lee say "Gaff...Gaff"

we're good here.  more visibility, and it's "fishing-related" enough for me! ;D
send me an email at alantani@yahoo.com for questions!

Not that I need another .375, but did you decide on a price? Is it a NIB, 1990, Winchester Safari Classic, with a leaf sight? Do you know what state it was manufactured in? Thanks Keta.

bring those spinners!  the lighter the gear you use, the more likely you will be to catch something big!!!!!!

Does that mean I should bring one of my micro-lites with 4lb test? ;D

Besides the big-bore rifles and ultra-lite spinners ;) is a 2-speed reel desirable for this trip?  Say, a Penn Fathom 25 or 30?

Yes, I used a 2 speed Avet MX but a 25N two speed would work well.

Unless you're a mono/conventional/classic purist like Aiala ;) , a 2-speed is highly desirable. I thought I could do without one until I tried Mel's Makaira 10II-SEa. I was so hooked I bought one the next week. :) :)
