The 300 rounds of 44 ammo is worth more than $200!
We're you wearing a mask when you made this purchase, cause that's a steal. I thought mine was good for the big-5 special 357 for $250.

Nice.

I stumbled on one, NIB, back in the middle 1990s. Some guy I met at the range inherited it from his father (He wasn't shooting it). His dad bought it new in the early 1960s, and never took it out of the original box. Still in original plastic and wax paper wrapping. Bolt had never even been put in the action. It needed to have the dried up, factory, metal preservative cleaned out of the bolt before it would shoot, because the firing pin was frozen from it. Mint, untouched, medium heavy barrel, Sako action, Belgian made, chambered in .243 Winchester.

Once cleaned, lubed, and working, it would shoot .45 MOA all day long from a bench with 100 grain Remington deer loads. Still have it. All I did was mount a scope and sight it in. Since then, it's been a safe queen. I paid $900.00 for it back around 1995.

Well, it was going to be a Ruger #1 in 22LR, but now I've discovered it's not to be.

Sounds like a beauty! Is your model free floated? You have a keeper there...

This is an FN model with the step tapered barrel 4LXXXX serial number. It has one safe ding on the buttstock and came with Buehler base and rings. I picked it up from an auction for $800. Not sure if I am keeping it or selling it. Heck, I may not be able to sell it for a profit, in which case I will mount a 2x-7x Leupold and use it on elk some day.

Those are nice. I find them a lot, but so far none clean enough for me. If I find a nice clean one in either 20 or 12 gauge I'd pick it up.
