I'm still saying it's going to bring $1,100.00. The seller probably has some ridiculous reserve on it though.

Gave considerable less for mine in the Walnut stock but it may have been longer ago than I recollect. Was during the Obama rule.

Not surprised, a .308W is the red headed step-child. Foolish as that may be. A poster recently let an essentially unused pre 70 FWT .308W get away for the same price. If I didn’t already have 2 .308W’s, I would have been haggling on this one.

Brad is correct, a 6 digit and one of the most desirable and hard-to-find s/s classics, indeed. Good buy there Bobmar.
