Winchester 300 Mag - Very Few Rounds through it
I recently purchased a Win 300 mag used. The guy I got it from has had it a few years & got it from a friend who only sighted it in & hunted once with it. Total this gun has less than 1/2 a box of rounds through it... 7 total from what I was told.
There are a few nicks in the stock but overall the gun is in good shape.
Since I bought it, I have not used it but have instead decided that some recent bills are more important than keeping the gun.
Included is:
Bolt action Winchester 300 Mag
3x9 Scope
Hard Case
1 1/2 boxes of 150g ammo
Looking to get $750 + Shipping

LL Outdoors,
That is a very nice looking rifle but it might be easier to sell if you would mention that it is a Mauser 98 sporter. I can't tell if it is a commercial 98 or a military 98, but some of those details would help sell it in my opinion. I am not knocking you or the rifle as I am a Mauser nut and this looks like a good one!!

After more looking, I think it is a Parker Hale Mod. 1200 or something like that!!
That would make it a commercial Mod 98 and a nice one at that!!

If it is a Parker Hale, it should have that on the barrel or action. Also Made in England--Birmingham I think. Most of the information should be on the barrel forward of the Caliber stamp.
If it is another rifle in a Parker Hale stock, it should have something on the side of the action.
If you had some close-up pics of the action alone, a prospective buyer might be able to tell more also..
Looking at the left side of the action will tell if it is a commercial action or converted military!!

Does this info help???
After looking more closely this gun has got more than 7 rounds through it... it's just got too many marks on stock & even a few near the action for it to be only 7 rounds old...

LL Outdoors; I did a little research on the info you provided a Google search for Austria Voere manufactured rifles, provided this topic, as well as others, http://sporteque.ca/category.php?id_category=67.
Wikipedia also has a small informative description on the company.
The rifle is based on the original 98 mauser action, and as you can see comes in several models. The company is based in Austria since 1965 I believe it said. It originally started as a West German Co in 1948.
I woud venture to say they are probally on par with the Parker Hale Husqvarna perhaps Whitworth/ Interarms, just a somewhat educated guess on this comparison.
Do some more research for more in depth reviews on Voere rifles. I believe it is a quality bolt action mauser based rifle. I have no actual experience with this rifle manufacture.
