I just purchased a Model 94 with the serial #2806281. It appears to me to be a Traditional 30-30 WIN made after 1964. Could you verify that information for me and estimate it's value? The rifle is in real good condition. Thanks.

    I am intrested in hearing some opinions on 94s. I own several and shoot them. I see a lot of differences in how they shoot. They seem to be sensitive to the Brand of ammo used as well as the temperature.

    Since bolt action guns get "Glass Bedded" to free up the barel, Do people do anything to help 94s get consistant?

    Which of the Pre 64s do ya'll think shoot best in factory conditon.
    1) Saddle Ring up to 1932
    2) Rifles
    3) Pre War guns
    4) Post War long forearm
    5) Post War Short Forearm

    The Hornady Ammo seems to be the best Factory loads Ive used. Ive experimented and seen that Federal vs Wichester vs Remmington vs Hornady all shoot a bit different.

    why are the model 94's in 357 so much more expensive than the same gun in 30 30?

    cool factor? or something else?

    I have a Winchester Model 94 serial number 13028xx. Would this be considered a pre-war carbine? I have taken the forearm off and on the flat under the chamber section of the barrel it is marked 30wcf41.

    Thanks for your help
