Why a pissing match? OP asked a question, got some answers, end of story.
Great rifles, will last hundreds of years, lots of variation in value based on where you are and when you are trying to sell them.Quote:

Using blinds like this one. A steady rest in all directions is all it takes lolQuote:

No need to shoot a running deer across a field.
Tang mounted and its in pretty decent shape for an almost 120 year old firearm

Skeeter - Accuracy Plus in Peterborough might be able to give you an idea over the phone.

I have a couple of them and love them. They are my favourite rifles.
I've never tried to figure out their value, mostly because I'd never sell them anyway.
Have a saddle ring rifle with 26" octagon barrel made in 1900 and a saddle ring carbine made in 1913, both in 30/30.
As for shooting 300 yards? Why would I want to do that when it's just as easy for me to shoot one at 20 or 40? lol
