Looking for some insight of a British .338 win mag with a deep green laminate stock it has the crown stamp and was made in England. I inherited the gun but would like to know more about it, ie. est. value or any other valuable info!

Thank you in advance.

To further my quest for information on my previous post, I’ve finally been able to add pics. I’m trying to find as much info as I can and what its value might be. I inherited this .338 win mag from a relative that hunted with it till his passing.IMG_7150.jpegIMG_7151.jpegIMG_7152.jpegIMG_7154.jpegIMG_7155.jpeg
 
Well, that was a quick learning curve !
I see cosmic offered up some possibles.
Right side of the action below the scope base a close up there will tell even more, I can just make out some letters and such and have not enlarged the picture to confirm what cosmic suggested.
Prolly a shooter you have and if you ever decide to chane ring hight I would be interested in those scope rings.
But, being a mauser type action you prolly need that combo of rings and bases for the bolt handle to clear the scope.
Hope it is a shooter ..try some Federal 180 grn or some nosler 180grn partitions for Moose Medicine or Blk Bear medicine.
Might be a bit heavy for Island deer...
Down side it might be a bit heavy to be a pack rifle though.

If it's a factory rifle, the manufacturer and model info is usually stamped on the barrel. If that isn't present it could be a sporterized military rifle or a rebarreled factory rifle.

Not on topic: spell check changed "rebarreled" to "remarried" in my first attempt. Is it just me or is spellcheck becoming more of a nuisance than helpful?
