    Considering a nice No 4 rifle can be had most places for under $300.00, it would have to be a very, very nice sporter to go for $190.00, and if it was that nice I probably would find another project rifle. I have a pretty Bishop stocked, commercially refinished No 1 Mk III* sporter and I wouldn't ask that for it.

    If the rifle doesn't have any modifications other than a cut down stock and the numbers match, and it's in very good condition overall I might go $125.00, $150.00 tops, since I would only be buying the barreled action and would only have to scrounge up a stock.

    only have to scrounge up a stock.

    Turns out its 210$... The stock is beautiful, and so is the action, it's just incredibly worn. You can't even tell when and where it was manufactured. I can barely make out ENGLAND on the left side. It's a nice rifle, I just want one with intact steel. Harder to find around here, apparently.
