Winchester push feed questions for the stock experts

[Shrek]

The bottom plate on my two piece on a classic measures 5.58” including the hinge and 4.5” for just the plate. First measurement includes all of the bottom plate assembly hinge and screw tab overall length. As far as I understand it there was only one action length prior to 64 and two after. Short and long. Differences between the standard long action.473 base and magnum lengths is all done with bolt stops and magazine filler blocks. I just looked again for the spare LA 2 piece bottom metal I thought I had but I must have given it away already.

There’s your difference. You have a pre 64 bottom plate.

View attachment 1142587 View attachment 1142588 I have a post-64 hinge plate in stainless that measures 5 5/8" end to end, or does it have to be blue

The X-Man

It does not have to be blue. Is that the total measurement- tab and all?

 

[Dusty Stevens]

Yes

On the Winchester Model 70's, on there std or long action you really only have 2 chooses, post or pre 64, trigger hole spacing is the same, but the width is different, only the hinge plate are different lengths
I believe its only 1/8" difference between the 2

The X-Man

So if yours is 5 5/8” with tab and all thats the shorter one that i have it looks like. If the plate is longer than mine id love to have it. I cant see your total measurement

30EX’s plate is what you need for sure. It’s stainless so it has to be for the post 64 LA.

30EX’s plate is what you need for sure. It’s stainless so it has to be for the post 64 LA.

But its the same measurement as mine isnt it?

 

[Shrek]

Yours on the first page is 5 3/8” and 30EX’s is 5 5/8” if I’m not mistaken.

Dusty that stainless plate on here with the picture will work perfect in your action

A pre-64 setup trigger guard will bolt up to a post-64 because it not as wide, but post-64 will not bolt to a pre-64 because it’s to wide, the hinge plate are different lengths, you have a complete pre-64 setup that’s why were having the problem, dump it, or sell it, they get crazy money for them, I have the hinge plate, you shouldn’t have a problem finding the right post-64 trigger guard

He already has a post 64 trigger guard mismatched to a pre floor plate. The difference in the tg's is only width. All he needs is your post 64 floor plate to make it work.

It does fill the slot (not narrow) and is made from a cheap cast aluminum

I didn't go through the whole thread so, if someone else has already caught this, I apologize. It looks like you have a pre-64 floorplate mixed in with a post-64 trigger guard. You need a post-64 floorplate. It doesn't matter if it's for a push feed or a classic crf. Pre-1968 the floorplate is going to be aluminum. 68 or later will be a fairly heavy steel plate (cast). The difference in screw spacing between the pre and post-64 is about 1/4 inch. WH
