I would say its a good deal on the 1914(P-14) 303 Britt. there were three different manufactures the "Pattern 1914 Mk-1 E" made by eddystone, and  the "Pattern 1914 Mk-1 R" made by Remington,  and the "Pattern 1914Mk 1 W made by Winchester most of the 303's here are bringing $200 plus so your well within a "good deal"!! If it looks good and the bore is good and check the reciever over good and checkout the sights too. The eddystone 1917 was another good buy too I buy anything that is under $200 but you also can checkout "gunsanmerica" and you will usually find a range of prices from highest to lowest on the same gun and you can get an idea what the fair market value would be. But the "condition" dictates market value from poor, to fair, to good, to very good, to excellent being the highest price too.               BigBill
