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.

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.

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.
