The Safari Express is CRF with a fixed elector. The Super Grade has a plunger ejector and is push feed. The web site that SharpsNitro directed me to ages the Safari Express at 1955 but it would not let me put the letter prefix in, which makes me think it is may be a later model, that and the fact that the 458 WM wasn't adopted until 1956, I think. More digging required. It dates the Super Grade at 1979 without the letter prefix.

Is there an easy way of identifying a Model 70 that came out of the Winchester custom shop.

Cheers

CF
