Sorry I have been hunting and moving house...
The barrel was round, not Octo, bluing was original, nice aged patina with wear marks on the edges of handling areas. I don't recall if it was a perch belly. As above the butt stock was too unmarked to be original and not quite a match to the fore arm.
Price was $500 cdn.
I will ask if they can take a few pics for me.
Did some reading on 30/30 cal, and it is not as bad as I recall with some of the more modern factory ammo. It should do quite well with 170 gr NP's.
