Hi:

 What is the timeline for the Winchester Model 70 XTR rifle?

What calibers was it offered in left hand models?

Thanks,

  Time line....1985.
   (3) models.  Sporter, Super Express Magnum and Sport Varmint.
    No info on what cals all these came in or on left hand models. Others may
    know.

The Model 70 XTR were never produced in left hand.  The left hand Model 70's didn't come about until the mid 90's.
