    The only belted magnum cartridges factory chambered in the Model 70 were Winchester Magnums, or Holland & Holland.
    Winchester never chambered the Mod 70 in .308NM, so it's obviously been re-chambered, if it has the Winchester roll stamp on the barrel. If it doesn't, it's been re-barreled. Either way, collector value on a pre-64 Model 70 is gone, in good shape, $400 tops.
    Now, that said, if there's provenance that a famous custom gun builder, like Ackley or Biesen, built the rifle, that changes things.

      It will always have collector value it can be re barreled with another Winchester period barrel.

        If it's a 3" receiver it is very rare dangerous game guys like them like the large Mauser action .

          It has a Winchester barrel as it had sights and the famous Barrel bulge or boss for the rear sight.
