I have a 250.00 gun SN: 3130. I was told a long time ago, maybe by Oscar G. that you could identify the 250.00 grade by the little tear-drop inside the larger tear-drop, on the breech balls. The engraving is a little sparse, for a gun of this quality, but is quite good!
My gun is in pretty decent shape, with the bonus of having very modern dimensions.
I have used this gun on box birds, (with special loads, of course) skeet, SC's, and light hunting duties.
I'm guessing that the original owner purchased this gun for pigeons, judging by the dimensions.
