He guys thinking of selling my beautiful kimber hunter model. Awesome fiddle back on the wood grain. Leupold 2x7 rim fire special in leo mounts. Gun is easily a 9 out of 10 with no marks at all on wood. Safe queen. 2 xtra mags. What's it worth?

I bought one in Jan off Gunbroker and paid $1000. It was in a LGS, which claimed the gun had cryogenic treatment of the barrel.

Don't know if I got a good deal or not, but I really don't care. It's a great gun, shoots phenomenal, and they are hard to find.

I have two of them...if we are talking about the NY made Hunter model... One is very dark straight grain wood and the other a lot of figure and much lighter. Paid $850 for each of them a few years ago. Have watched the prices on GunBroker and they don't seem to bring much more than that.

That bottom one looks like a classic stock, with that orange pad. My buddy had some problems with his hunter back in the day and for the inconvenience they upgraded his stock to a Classic and it came with that Orange pad too. All Hunters I have seen have just had black pads.

Lawnman: I own quite a few Kimber rimfire Rifles but most of them are the "Kimber of Oregon" models.
I only have two Kimbers from Yonkers one being a Hunter Silhouette and the other an 82G (heavy barrel target model I believe made for the Government?).
I bought my Kimber Model 82 Hunter/Silhouette in 2,005 in perfect condition with excellent wood for $450.00 from "an acquaintance".
I had no idea what it was worth back when I bought it but I WANTED it and intended (and do!) shoot Ground Squirrels with it.
I would NOT sell that Rifle (alone not including scope) for $800.00!
My advice is - not to take less than $875.00 with that scope and those two extra magazines!
Kimber 22 L.R. magazines are NOT cheap - I found that out!
Second bit of advice is - DON'T sell it!
Getting a quality replacement Rifle like that with as great a trigger and as great as wood as they usually have (and you describe) WILL be tough to do.
Best of luck to you with whichever you decide to do.
