Practically giving it away at the package price. That's an easy $500 scope.

Thanks for the input. Mauser's are a hard sell these days and I'm trying to make the package more acceptable.

I had one of these rifles in 284 win, rebarreled by Chick Donnelly. Absolutely stellar rifle, and the most comfortable stock I have ever laid paws on. I still kick myself for selling mine.

Thought I'd add this info for those unfamiliar with these rifles. It was requested by an interested party:
The H&R 300 Ultra, as I understand it, was a "kit" gun in three forms over the period of time 1965-1983. By "kit" I mean the stock, barrel and action were purchased by H&R and assembled in the US. There are three different versions as to the action used; 1965 - 1972 FN Mauser-type, 1973-1977 SAKO and 1978 - 1983.
Mine is a Mauser-type Mark X (aka Charles Daley) from Zastava in Yugoslavia. Stocks were made by Fajen and barrels by Douglas. The action is classic Mauser 98 though with an Interarms-type Mark X bolt shroud and a 2-position (push/pull) safety on the right. Feed is controlled round from a floor plate system. The trigger is fully adjustable.
I got this info off the internet when doing research to purchase the rifle originally.
