Bolt Gun Value (Pictures)

[kmc0929]

Not trying to start up an auction here nor is this a cleaver way at selling this rifle - that said, I need some help with a real world sale price for my bolt gun. I've decided it just makes more sense to go with a 7.62 AR platform or even SCAR; something lighter smaller etc - since I rarely make it out to over 500YDS.

The rifle is hard to put a value on because it's not really a factory type item. The gun was blueprinted, a Schneider 24" USMC barrel installed, Sako extractor, Badger lug, badge bottom, badger rail, timney trigger - the whole thing was cerakoted black. The stock is a MCM A4 and it was bedded properly.

I literally have no clue where to start. If I took all the money I spent on it and added it up, it would be too high and it would never sell. Any real world estimates? Better to sell the whole thing as a package with the optics or split it up?

Who built it (did the rebarreling job, bedding, etc.)? Round count? Overall condition of the rifle in terms of any blems or other "issues" not obvious in the pics? Accuracy achieved and with what ammo on average? Etc., etc., etc. With what you have posted now...its just hard to tell.

That addt'l info should help in getting you at least a better ballpark range.

Aside from that info...a "best guess" range assuming great condition, etc., would be to take your total cost in the rifle and take ~75% of that as a rough starting price.

Just some food for thought...good luck either way!

The farthest I have really been able to shoot it was 800yds, and that was at a steel silhouette target, it hit the target every time. Farthest paper I have shot was 100yds at which all the rounds either touch or are in the same hole. It has 300 rounds of FGMM shot through it, the work was done by ann excellent local rifle builder, it is in close to perfect condition with a few small marks on the bolt knob.

I personally would put the ball park value at around $2,000, give or take 10%.

Did I miss it? I assume its a Remington, but you may wanna specify that.

If so, I would suggest 2200-2300$ to start.
