Winchester 70 Alaskan .375 H&H Mag Stain - 535205138

The Winchester 70 Alaskan in .375 H&H Mag is a time-tested bolt-action rifle built for serious big-game hunting in unforgiving terrain. This is the rifle you reach for when your quarry demands the .375 H&H's proven stopping power—think Alaska brown bears, moose, and caribou. The Winchester 70 Alaskan pairs classic controlled round feed reliability with modern accuracy features, making it one of the most trusted dangerous-game rifles available to North American hunters.

What sets the Alaskan apart is its marriage of heritage and precision engineering. The rifle rides on a forged steel receiver with an integral recoil lug that's bedded front and rear, eliminating zero shift over the life of the rifle. Its cold hammer-forged, free-floating barrel and recessed target crown deliver the accuracy you need at distance, while the pre-'64 style controlled round feed with claw extractor fully governs the cartridge from magazine to chamber to ejection—no surprises when it matters. The M.O.A. trigger system offers zero take-up, zero creep, and zero overtravel, giving you a clean, predictable break every time.

The satin walnut Monte Carlo stock with cut checkering provides a secure grip and proper eye alignment with either open sights or a mounted scope. The hooded brass bead front sight and folding adjustable rear sight get you on target quickly in poor light or brush, while the barrel boss accommodates optics without removing iron sights. At 8 pounds 8 ounces and 45.75 inches overall, the Alaskan balances portability with the heft needed to manage the .375 H&H's recoil—further cushioned by the Pachmayr Decelerator pad. The alloy one-piece bottom metal adds rigidity for accuracy while keeping weight down.

Three-position safety, blade-type ejector, and polished metal surfaces round out a rifle designed to perform when conditions are worst and your hunt is on the line.
