Yeah, it was made like a European scope. Huge ocular that was as big as the objective:

I checked the Winchester/BACO site and the MSRP on a stainless walnut featherweight was $1,249.00 this year (2022). It also appears that the 7mm-08 is one that was discontinued. We know that most times the MSRP is always higher than the retail selling price. Now, down the road that rifle may be worth more than MSRP because of its rarity. In your OP, you didn't say if it was in a wood stock or synthetic stock. The walnut stocked rifles tend to sell for more money, if kept in excellent condition. I've seen some BACO extreme weathers chambered in 7mm08 sell for less than a grand, and other more obsolete chambered rifles like the 325 WSM sell for $600.00 as recent as last year. I may not be the best person to answer your question, as I generally seem to find excellent deals on rifles and even pistols. Maybe someone else will chime in and say they have seen this particular rifle selling for more money? Also another thing to consider is ask the shop owner if he would sell it without the scope. Offer him $750 for just the rifle. You may end up walking away with a sweet rifle and great deal that way.. Good luck with it man and let us know if you snag it..
