Any Information on this rifle?

I am considering purchasing a Winchester model 70 in .243 for my daughter.  It is the "Ranger" version.  It appears to be a little smaller and lighter than my other model 70's.  I think it was made in the 80's, was only fired a few times, and is in like new condition.  I have other model 70's, both pre and post 64.  I like having all of my actions and safeties the same.  Any addtitonal info would be great.  Thank you.

if i am not mistaken the rangers were made to be sold through a store maybe sears. i had a 7mm one for alittle while they are just a plain model 70 with blind magazine if i am not mistaken. atleast mine was.

It is the model 70 with a plain, shorter stock, and a shorter barrel.  Buy it, you can always upgrade the stock later, and add length if needed.

You will not be sorry.

  Yup, brought out as a youth model in 1985, good gun.

It sold on an online auction for 355.00.  It was like brand new.  It didn't have a mark on it.  I am sure that I will find another one.  I wish i would have won the bid on that one.
