Thanks for your help.

Northern Hunter : I will quote from the blue book and NOT let emotion come into this as some do: win 70 featherweight in 358 cal. 70% $900 us and in 80% $1000 us. The 358 cal is rare because Winchester had problems with this cal. Many if them were exchanged for other cal.and the result is that original guns are rare in this caliber and BTW if it is the Super Grade model add 400% good luck on your find.
