Winchester 70 How to find date

[WALKERs210]

I have barrel codes for Remington, and know more or less how to date almost all of my weapons. I have a Winchester Model 70 in 300WM, synthetic black stock, with B.O.S.S. installed and on right side of barrel is stamped "CLASSIC SM BOSS". So how do I find the manufacturing date, I have jumped into my Blue Book for Guns CD but there are just too many variants.

The Classics were made frm 1994-2006. There are some fairly reliable online sources for pre-64's, and a few for guns made up until 1980. I have never found any reliable online source for guns newer than that.

I own 3 Classics one SN-G184XXX was made in 1994 or 1995.
Another SN-G324XXX was made pretty close to 2000
The 3rd SN-G246XXXX. was made in 2006. Note the 7 digit SN instead of 6 digits on the first 2.

Hope this helps narrow things down some.
