I've been offered a Weaver T-30 target sight. What's a reasonable price for one of these in excellent condition, please?

I'd say anything in the $275-$350 range.

Tightest eyebox of any scope I’ve used. Try it before you buy.

The T Series Weavers with Micro-Trac were developed in the '70s when metallic silhouette shooters found that most scopes lacked reliable repeatability. They filled that need very well. They were never known for optical excellence. It wasn't a priority for offhand shooting at high contrast steel animals. They are what they are. These days it seems that shooters want a scope that can discern individual hairs on an animal's ass hundreds of yards distant. The market is the market.

Stroebel’s latest book says $350-$550 depending upon condition. I’ll take a guess & say in today’s market, $350 in excellent condition, IMHO.

These scopes track like they're on rails. Optics range from decent to sketchy. Optical Services can do any service you may need. Whether it's right for your applucation is up to you. -Al

Thanks for the information. Looks like the $300 price offered to me isn't out of line.
