I think that stock treatment has been used by a number of stock makers once it became popular. I've seen others and always on nicely customized old military actions. Mostly with new barrels, and only using military rifle actions.
They are somewhat dated to that period, as they were pretty popular once they caught on.

Thanks-- your analysis makes sense to me- as this gun is dated 1974, as per the inscription on the floor plate-- My friend who does not travel the internet, as I try to do, has decided to pass on this 1903-- he wants a pre-1964 M70-

Cabela's has had a few R. F. Sedgely custom Springfield's for sale in the past 3 years-- But I passed on them, and now they belong to other patrons of the GL. But this one has a great trigger, is accurate and was priced right. End of story.. RWTF

The Winslow rifle appears to have a blind magazine. Not too common with custom/sporterized Springfields ?

You, Sir- have a great eye for details-- that is a solid section under the receiver-- indicating a blind magazine-- more solid wood to carry the recoil effect of a heavier Cal.-RWTF
