Call it nostalgia, but my favorite two actions are the Enfield ( 1914 or 1917), and then the 03 Springfield.
So guys like me tend to give a little more for them, but I don't think I am alone.
Just horse traded off for a 1917 Remington Made Action, that had a Fajen Stock, a semi heavy barrel that was fairly new, had the modified floor plate, made to be cocked on closing, replaced or tuned real good trigger job, with a Lyman Rear and Front Globe sights... the guy was asking $300 for this one.. with the upgrades I figured they alone were worth a lot more than that, so the action basically free...
Reblued, and nice job all the way around.. stock had some scratches so I don't think it was the rifles only barrel after the original military one.
Will redo the recoil pad, but other than that I'm very happy with it, I enjoy shooting those 100 year old gals..
I actually like them better than the infamous pre 64 model 70: Imagine that. However, that doesn't mean they are worth much. A rifle like what is pictured by the OP is probably only worth about $275.00.....
