While researching dangerous game rifles, I came across this quote. I got a good chuckle...
"What makes the pre-'64 [Winchester] Model 70 stand apart from
it's post-'64 sisters is
it's controlled round feeding where the cartridge being chambered is
grabbed
by the claw extractor and held as it is pushed into the chamber. This
allows feeding of the action upside down while you are lying on your
back and being mauled by a bear, lion, buffalo, etc."
