I'm right with Drew on that one. IMHO there isn't a 300T in the world worth $1900. 303 and 30-30 maybe, 250 or HP definitely. But then again, Drew and I don't get to determine market value, buyers and sellers determine price and market value.

A gun is worth whatever somebody is willing to pay for it. Just boils down to what is any particular gun worth to you?

Here is another dirty little secret people don't like to talk about. That $1900 bid on that T might not even be a real bid. It might be somebody that knows what the reserve is trying to run the price up for the seller. Beware of reserve style auctions. You don't know who is bidding, what they know that you don't know or what their motivations are.

Nice rifle, hard to find them with the checkering. Only made the last few years of the F. Good grab.

the raised ramp should have been the give away but the forearm looks to have 3 points to the rear... all of the checkered F's that I knew of had forearm checkering just like a G... might just be the picture.

I would like to find a few decent F's... I had one for a while but sold it recently but it was just not quite right.

Congrats... post some more closer up pics... we all love to see pictures and drool...

Sweet!

I am not a real big fan of the pre-war F's, I like the G's from that time period better, but I would definitely grab an F like that if I were ever to stumble across one.

Great lookn' gun.

interesting that it is 3 point checkering on the forearm. IF you don't mind, what is the serial? Looks like RS or K style checkering on the forearm.

Neat, I did not realize they did any with that style checkering.

Johno,

If you still have my email address, feel free to email me and I will post your pics. PM if you need email addy.

This is what I am used to seeing in checkering on an F forearm...does any one else have a checkered F with three point checkering on the forearm?

This is Johno's gun, just posting the pictures for him

Randy, its 250 sav, my dream would be to find a companion in 22 h.p, thats not going to happen down here.

Our prices are much lower in general terms than the US. I am trying to find an auction ctalogue from maybe 8 years ago with beatiful color pics of a 99K, I was able to handle the rifle and it was as close to mint as ive ever seen. It sold for $2,000.00AUD that would be about $1,850.00USD. I just could'nt get the money together, guess we have all been there. The other thing I missed a few years back was a 1920, 250-3000 till with the original box and papers and 2 boxes of ammo. This rifle was written up in an aussie gun mag, have tried to track it but no luck
