It would bring $500.00 in the Rockies where some folks treasure the quick lock time and overlook the overall simplicity and obvious economical manufacture of the rifle. Most are usually quite accurate. Some shooters pirate out the action to build and convert it into a primo target rifle for various sports.

I disagree, its worth only what the market will bring and the market is down on bolts right now. Dave had them as the top ten guns but I totally disagree with that. I sold mine several years back for 300-350 with a scope and rings. Probably could have gotten more but I was young and wanted one of the slicker 700s. Anyway depending on the glass anywhere from 300-500 but 500 would be topped with a gold ring or better.

In the northern Rockies bolts probably make up 80% of center fire rifle sells. This may even be a conservative figure and of course includes the 788. If sells falter it will be levers and semi-autos in the west. Some outfitters refuse to take a hunter armed with the latter for several safety reasons based on their considerable experience. Single shots will hang in there for some consumers who understand the merits of this type action. I don't know much about the rest of the world which is all inclusive on Gunbroker.
