I just read the price estimates for the model 20 in 250-3000 and I am not sure where these came from but I bought a beautiful Model 20 in 250-3000 22 inch barrel with serial nuber 22xx 4 digit and no cracks and all the bluing. Does not have the peep but factory rear sight, and bought it in large gun store for 400 dollars, and My friend just bought one two weeks ago on the Canadian Gunnutz website. It was a model 1920 with 10,xxx serial number and had no rear sight but peep in 250-3000 and in beautiful condition no cracks 90 plus percent with 24 inche barrel and he paid advertised price of 375. plus shipping.
I have seen them go as high as 550 but I have been collecting savages for 25 yrs and that is my experience. THe difference may be that these are all USA prices as they are higher.
