I have a savage 1899 SRC chambered in 303savage that I would like to sell locally. The gun is in about 80% condition. Can anyone give me their opinion on a value. Thanks

Where is local? I might drive over to look at it. An SRC is on a lot of folks wish list, Joe.

As the others have said, need to see a few pictures to give a value estimate and would be nice to know about where you are located. This is a rifle that is definitely on several lists of "wants"!

On my iPad I can't tell if the receiver is just dirty, or reblued. Anybody?

Just pry the ring and staple off of it with a pair of pliers and send it to me. I'll make my own SRC.

Rory, that later Savage 1915- 25 high gloss blueing was very durable. Also, the rifle is photographed against a near white background.

Made that mistake before when buying a couple of rifles. I'd venture original blueing compared against my 1919 SRC:

1100 shipped if anyone’s interested. More pics upon request, just send email or phone. The stock has the tang crack. Bore looks good.

Better pictures

It has not been reblued IMO

A fine speciman

Sorry Rick, I'm always in too big a hurry. $1100 seems fair. I paid that for a 30-30 in comparable condition. It is missing the ring but has the staple so it's an easy fix which I haven't slowed down long enough to do yet. David
