It comes up periodically that someone 
is looking for the F* 300/4.5.
KEH has one listed.

And, in my opinion, with good reason.  As much as I love the M*/A*
300/4's for their compactness and speed, it is hard not to like the
optically superb and well-built F* 300/4.5.  It's my favorite
autofocus lens (used primarily as a manual focus lens).

I would have to agree with you there.  I find my macro lens more useful 
but the quality of this 300mm lens has tempted me to sell my FA*400mm  
(the jury's still out on that).  I will definitely sell my A*300mm f/4 
sometime.
