I'm sorry I fat fingered that. Yes, it's a WCF. When did they drop that and just call it a 30-30?
Thanks for the comments. I am just trying to get a history of how old and what it might be worth. It is by no means for sale. Just curious.

Looks like it was made in 1909. Serial number starts with 5372. Does that sound right?

UMC gave it the 30-30(caliber and grains of powder).Marlin picked up the cartridge and called it 30-30 Winchester, but I am not sure what date.


I have read two different accounts

Winchester changed dies from wcf to 30-30 around serial number 1,900,000. Another article says around 1946

1909 sounds right based on the serial number. It appears to be a 26" octagonal, and looks to be in very good shape. I would price it at $1000 - $1500. It all really depends on how much someone is willing to pay. I would take no less than $1000 for it.
