I have a 300 Win Mag Colt-Sauer barreled action. It is somewhat unique in that the barrel is locked by two large Allen head capscrews; and instead of fixed locking lugs, it has 3 locking lugs that retract into the bolt sleeve.

These were very high grade rifles made back in the 1980s. I’ve seen only 4 or 5 of them.

Has any of the group had any experience with them or can offer any information?
Thanks
 
Thanks for pics, I haven’t seen one in almost 40 years! It’s good for my old eyes!!!! Thanks!
I couldn’t afford a real one, but I did snag a new barreled action in a closeout deal for around $200 back in the 1980s when I ran a small gun shop. Intention was to custom stock it, but haven’t got a round tuit yet
If anyone happens to have a spare round tuit, please send it. I’ve got half dozen square ones but they just seem to work.
 
Beautiful. I am still kicking myself just the 42 years later for not buying a new Colt-Sauer in .30-06 Sprg at Abercrombie & Fitch in Chicago in 1976. It was priced at a bit under $300. This mistake convinced me that you can't fix stupid.

Blushing with embarrassment,
 
I had one for a time, I moved it on, because I really didn't like how heavy they are...nicely made though...

I saw a new in the box .30-06 a few years ago at a gunshow. It was beautiful. Asking price was $1200. I regret not buying it.
