Nice example, that is one version I have yet to run across.

 

Another variant of the 67. Cool. Thx for posting.

 

Wow that is a very nice rifle! Congrats

 

From a 2016 post by “John.”
”A Model 68 was introduced concurrently with the Model 67 in 1934. It was nothing more than the Model 67 with an aperture rear sight and a hooded front sight. It was discontinued in 1944 when the same sights became optional on the Model 67. Deliveries of the Model 68 were still being made in 1945. The Models 67 and 67A with target sights continued to be cataloged into the 1950s.”

I may be off on dating. This post has discussion without dates and nice photos. They called it a 67t.

”67t

Flysalot scores again, this time with a pre-A model 67 single shot that appears to be an oddity from the factory. It was considered by Winchester to be a Target version of the gun. Tentative research with the help of JWA seems to suggest that the 96B peep sight that is on this rifle is original because the proof mark location would be obscured by the pointy but (usually) correct 96A. This style of model 67 is why the model 68 was discontinued, as the only difference in the two was that rear peep which was on the 68 but not originally the 67. I have to check my notes about the front sight original to the 68. This one is missing the front sight hood”

Another old post has a 1946 start date.

“The peep sights used on the 68 (Model 96A rear and 97A ramp front) were offered as options on the 67, but not until after WWII. Winchester wasn't producing any civilian guns from 1941 through the end of the war. The first year the peep sights were offered on the 67 was 1946.”

A mid 1940’s date makes sense because the wood finish is exactly like a M67 I can date to 1948.

 

I don't know anything about a 67 but that one is a BEAUTY!!

 

Shot a third day. Better without wind.

It is zeroed.
