Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Does anyone out there know anything about the H&R model 301

I just bought one for $400.00. The action is a Belgian FN made M98 action. The gun is nearly mint and may possibly be unfired. Any info would be appreciated. TIA.

Great gun. Basically the same action as many of the commercial FNs imported during that time period. I missed one by a day at Pawn Shop. It had a little wear and sold for $350, so $400 is not bad at all. The flat bolt knob is a little different, but if you don't like it, a good gunsmith can re-do that.

I believe the H&R 300 series of rifles are/were very good. They are typical commercial mauser actions and H&R put some nice wood on them from Rienhart/[bleep] I believe.



Unfortunatily most folks are not that familiar with them to realize what a good rifle they are.



I have a H&R 300 in 300 win mag I wouldn't mind selling as I don't use it. When I place an ad in the paper or in online classifieds most folks think I have a single shot from New England Arms for sale! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
