Cylinder and bore are super tight and just as clean as a brand new gun of today. "The look like Coke Bottle grips from the side with the diamond around the screw and the checkering going really low (about 3/16-1/4" from bottom of grips) and look like new." I'd say it's easily 90%+. Any info greatly appreciated.

Humm, sounds like you are fishing, if in fact they are 'Coke' grips, they could double the value (not the gun)! Added value would be if they are 'Magna' grips numbered to the revolver! 5" I'd give it a point or two. Still, $300-$350 <> depending on your location is not unreasonable.
