another one for sale on gunbroker.com http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=448129820 " A very nice vintage Canadian built Ross M-1910 280 Ross straight pull sporting rifle. 280 Ross caliber, magazine fed, straight pull sporting rifle with long 28" barrel! Looks like this one is all original with nicely checkered stock showing a few handling marks and original steel checkered butt plate. Bore has nice strong rifling and is frosted and very serviceable. Action is crisp, safety works as it should. Original satin blue finish is excellent on both receiver and barrel showing a few light scratches. Trigger guard and magazine floor plate show light even wear probably from carrying in the field. Ross built both sporting and military rifles using this design for both Canada and briefly the US military. The 280 Ross caliber was one of the first high velocity rounds approaching 3000fps and was a popular weapon for European hunters traveling to Africa. A very interesting design, well built, and with very British proportions. This one comes with a vintage sling." |
