I have been agonizing on pulling the trigger on this auction...target guns with history like this really call out to me, although I don't shoot long range anymore: (Enjoy!)
What's next?

Someone is selling a collection. I bought a Colt New Service .44 Target in Mass. I don't care for Colt revolvers but that big New Service was special. I paid $1300.00 and sold it around ten years later for over $3000.00. That H.S. 10X is sweet.
Cool, thanks for sharing..
Ya'll are welcome. The H.S. is sweet. I'm going to pass on the target rifle as I'm in the hunt for an antique Winchester with special features, like sights, that letter.
And made by Winchester to boot! Wish my pockets were deeper
Hey old Buddy! Hope life has been good to you!!! For awhile there I thought that it might be a Type 1 Winchester-Springfield 1903 Sniper Rifle, too, but after checking into it, it looks to have started life as 1 of 150 national match Springfield 1903's, and later became 1 of 100 , as best as I can understand the references, that Col. William Brophy's best estimate is that this batch of rifles must be assumed to be Style "T" rifles were being manufactured/modified by Springfield in 1929/1930, and sold through the DCM. The seller of the subject rifle makes note to a reference that I do not have, and it is one that does not show up in price guides like the BBGV, so it does appear to be a Style "T" variation as I see it. Which is to say that the winner of this auction did very well, indeed.
Thanks for the info Top! I follow your posts because our taste in rifles is pretty much the same. (or close enough)
