Cold!

You have an "early" Model 14 manufactured in 1913.

Any Model 14 in .25 Remington is worth more than what you paid so you did OK.

For ammunition you have a number of choices: 1) You can purchase original factory "collector grade" ammo from various
sources such as gun shows or my favorite RTG Sporting Collectibles
on the internet.
2) Purchase custom reloads from a good source like Buffalo Arms which is
also on the internet but they will use resized/necked down .30 Remington
brass but it performs well.
3) You can reload for it if you can find some original brass or purchase some
resized .30 Remington Brass, again Buffalo Arms sells it.

The .25 Remington is identical in every respect to the .25-35 Winchester
EXCEPT it is a rimless cartridge so they are not interchangeable. If your stock
is not already cracked at the wrist it will be unless you snug up the stock bolt
before shooting it (remove buttplate and with a very long large blade screwdriver go through the hole in the butt stock and snug it up but don't over tighten).

These are really neat and great old guns, I'll give you $275 today and you can make a quick profit..........LOL!
