Hey guys.....I am looking for some help. I have a Browning a-bolt 223 wssm with the gray laminate stock and a heavy stainless barrel. I believe it was a non-cataloged limited-run around 2006 and I can not find any info on its value. I was thinking of selling it and would like to ask a fair price. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry, I should have said, it is like new. I have fired it 10 times total, it is just sitting in my safe. Thus the reason I would like to sell. I will try to put some pictures on later. I can not find a gun like it on Gun Broker or Guns America

Sounds like a Varmint Stalker. The 223 WSSMs from Browning all have hard-chromed barrel bores, so they shoot out no faster than the average 22-250, or often more slowly. Should be a good rifle. Win brass for it is absolute garbage, and all the WSSM brass is very ...different to work with as a handloader.

Couldn't give you a 'value,' except to say that most are not much interested in the WSSMs.

BOSS set-up?? High Gloss Thumbhole stock?? May be an Eclipse Varmint.

The caliber is what kills this . Brass is tough to find at times and factory ammo pretty much non existing. Great round though if someone has brass.

If the chrome stays in the barrel and doesn't peel out. Exactly how I got my current 22-250.

223 WSSM was a mistake. That's going to weigh a lot on any "value."
It was just short and fat taken to an extreme, a fad. The fad's over. Sorry, but it's not worth much as is.
