Yes, the Blue Book can be used in many directions. I've also seen some unscrupulous dealers pull out an older Blue Book to come up with a "fair price." It was interesting, when I attended the Mercer Savage Fest I wish I had brought a Ross along - none of the guys there had seen one either. There are some models of the Ross that they made a couple thousand, there are many other models much scarcer than a Savage '95 SRC.
