Gents, I've got a Finnwolf in .308 Winchester in nice shape with 2 factory magazines. Both of them are in excellent shape. Also, a Leupold 2x7 scope with Sako mounts. What's a ballpark value? Thank you, Soup

Thank you, Soup Nice shape can mean a difference of $300.00-$500.00 Sako rings or Sako rings and bases? Nice shape…$1500.00 Sako Rings…$100.00 Sako bases…$100.00 Leupold scope…$275.00 Factory magazine…$350.00 Excellent shape would add another $300.00-$500.00

Soup,
It's worth what someone is willing to pay.
37th Ed Blue Book shows the Finnwolf at 100% condition worth $895, add 15% for 4 shot mag. Blue Book says early models had the 4 shot mag, later ones, a 3 shot mag. What mags are those?
Blue Book prices can be behind a moving market, not sure what the Finnwolf market is doing. Seems to me it's a pretty rare rifle, not sure how many were made.
Years of mfg were '62-'74. You may want to research DOM with serial number.
Sometimes you can do better separating scope from rifle, selling them separate. Same with mounts.
If it was mine, I'd get some good pictures and post on the Classifieds, see what the demand may be.

I'd defer to what he posted. Pictures will help a lot. DF

If it has the original Sako peep sight and you can add several hundred more. In original box and I would hit the Sako Collector site

Just bought one with Sako rings, older 2-7 Redfield scope, 3 shot magazine about 95% on wood and metal and paid around what Shrap has said above. He's right on.
Enough already, just shoot it!

A late 2 cents. Sako levers are quality and uncommon. The "collector" value will far exceed the "field" value which, although Sako fans claim 'superior', the Winchester 88 would factually be the 'functional-hot' competitor At a way lesser market price! A Sako bolt action collector here. Would have liked to own such but for ever another bolt Model L61 around the corner! Congrats on such ownership and good luck on any sale! Best! John
