I may have an opportunity to purchase above rifle. I believe it was only made in 1983. Condition is believed to be good/excellent. Any idea on fair market value? I’ve combed the usual suspects on the web. Not a lot of comps. I’m thinking $1200-1500. Fair or ?
Thanks Travis

83 that would be the short barrel 18 1/2 ?

At today's crazy prices, $1,200 isn't out of the ball park. Troutnut - yes, the early rifles were blued and walnut with 18-1/2" barrels. I have had several, still own one in 7mm-08. They were accurate, too.

Definitely $1200 would be a excellent price in todays market. I do believe on Gunbroker it would sell for more then $1500
I walk around like I'm ok, but deep down inside, I wanna buy another gun.
