Depending upon caliber/cartridge chambering - value could be as high as $600 - $650. Timing is important in selling hunting rifles - they are seasonal sales items, mostly. We have seen the lower ends rifles sell briskly here in Eastern PA for deer season, while the slightly higher priced pieces languish on the racks - economy is somewhat sucky here.
