I had to go mail a package today and stopped by the local pawn shop.this was sitting there and just had to come home.rifle is in excellent cond and it has a redfield 2x7 scope on it.I thought 500.00 was a fair price.

MIGHTY FINE LOOKING. THAT IS ONE LEVERGUN THAT LOOKS GREAT WITH A SCOPE ATOP IT ALSO.
I STILL BELIEVE THAT A 2-7X SCOPE IS THE PERFECT SIZE FOR ALL GUNS, ALL GAME, ALL PURPOSES UNDER THE SUN.

Great price! Nice scope too - classic. That'll be a dandy coyote/deer gun.

Looks brand new

Congrats!

Mine really like remington brass, H414 powder and its not real finicky about who's 100 gr bullet you feed it.
It shoot pretty well with the 80's but nowhere near as good as it does the 100's.

One of mine as well.
Way under estimated, much like the 30-30.

Great deal, great gun. If you reload start carefully, minimum book loads in mine are near the max in the rifle, bore and chamber are tight but it is very accurate.

Great rifle/caliber combo and a great price!

Is that one of the steel-receiver models? Looks like it, but hard to tell from the angle...

Sorry, dude, that is not a good price - it's a steal! Purty wood on that one.

this morning called midway and ordered a rcbs small base die set as these have tight tolerances.2 boxes of bullets 95 gr and 100 gr a trimmer and some bore brushes.
next down at wally-world I was goofing off in sporting goods and they had fed 243 100 gr sp ammo for 13.97 a box

.I picked up 3 boxes at that price.
they also had some rem 9 mm fmj for 9.97 a box of 50.I guess the prices are starting to go down now and they had ammo in stock.
