You are looking at a Model 70 "Target" which is a little bit different from the run of the mill post-64 Winchester.

Pulled from a recent "Guns.com" article: "The Model 70 Target was available in an assortment of calibers, but they had the same features – a high-quality, heavy-profile barrel and a wide and flat-bottomed walnut stock. The rifle also came drilled and tapped for a variety of sighting options. You could either mount an optic, like the Unertl scopes that were often seen on these rifles in the past, or aperture sights that were mounted to the receiver and muzzle. The military version of the rifle used by legendary shooters like Marine sniper Carlos “White Feather” Hathcock was very similar in construction, using a more streamlined and less obtrusive stock."

It's generally valued at least $200 more than the standard 70 - as it was only made for 7 years starting 1964, ending in 1971. You're closer to $1k - $1200 IMHO to the right collector.

I got my dads 70 in 30-06, after he passed, he always claimed it wasnt very accurate. My sister had it for years but finally gave it to me a couple years ago. I shot it a couple times and it was not impressive. When i went thru it to clean it and shoot it some, i took off the cheap Tasco scope to put on a Burris. I wanted to replace the See- Thru rings and found the front ring was practically falling off , it was so loose. So i put on a Warne Mntn Tech rail and rings with the Burris. I havent shot it yet but i will this summer.

I have a sneaking suspicion those groups may tighten up.
