I paid $500 for mine 2 years ago. It is not quite as nice as yours. Looking at the auction sites I think $650-$700 would be a good starting point. Good luck in the sale. They are great rifles.

Just had a chance to buy one for $475 You should have bought it! From what I'm seeing that was a steal.

I paid $550 for mine, used 3 years ago. it's a stainless take down model. darned good rifle, and a pleasure to carry. mine will be in Colorado very soon chasing elk #2.

Mine isn't for sale. I gave $475.00 for it and though I love it I wouldn't expect to get much more for it.

Check out the closed items on gunbroker.
My guess is $575 to $700.

A lot depends on which vintage it is. Pre '81, 81 or the newer style. The Pre '81's with steel receivers tend to bring a little more.

I've seen several .308's for sale in the local racks for $550.00. Not nearly as nice as your pictures and also not .358's. You will love it as I do my 81! I do hunt with mine and covered the rear stock with a neoprene slip on sleeve to protect the finish.

That's a beautiful rifle. Your probably going to be sorry down the road if you sell it! Good luck on your decision.

That's a nice rifle and I really like the straight stock. I think in that condition and caliber, you could get $700 easily.

Ask too much. Perhaps that will give you time to consider how fkin stupid considering selling it is.
