Yes it does that front bead looks right and that steel butt end does too, even to the point where that top lip doesnt seem to curve enough to marry the wood . The bluing on my gun looks dark like yours but i think my lever has less bluing on it then yours does.

It would seem your trying to get one of each calibre in every model?

What should a good model 99 in 250 go for in the USA/Canada like the qauilty of the ones you have there in that pic? Is it more expensive for different calibres?

What is the difference between the model R, A, EG, F etc... is there a post or something i can read?
