Pre-'64 Win question

[hemiford]

Did they ever make one in 300WM ?

The timing seems very close, if they exist I'd think they were pretty rare.

 

[Edd]

Yes, they made some in 300 Winchester Magnum.

OK, thank you, Edd. I'll bet they are uncommon, less than one year only.
If they are still all-original they would either be quite worn or quite
expensive !

 

[Edd]

I haven't looked for one in a while. I would expect to pay a couple thousand for a nice one. They only made about 5000 of them.

Actually, I own a pre-64 300 WM. It's NEVER been fired. Aside from some dirt on the recoil pad, it looks like it did the day it was purchased. Base/scope was never mounted on it. It was purchased many years ago and I'm the brother of the original owner. As difficult as it will be, I intend to sell it one day.

When that day comes, I might be a buyer for it.

If it would not be inconvenient, would you post a few pictures ?

That's pretty neat.
