What do you think my Savage is worth?

[tobylazur]

I'm kind of looking for a new rifle that's more focused on long range shooting. I currently have a Savage model 10fp in .308. I turned the barrel back to 19.5", put it in a Bell and Carlson stock, put a Badger Ordinance 20MOA rail on it, and a Vortex Viper PST 2.5-10x MIL/MIL in Seekins rings.

I'm wondering what this rifle is worth; either as a package, or as just the rifle without the optic? It's not exactly pretty...

Considering the modifications you have made, it might make sense to rebarrel it to the caliber you want.

plus 1 !

I have found Savage's floating bolt head to be very accurate, and a money saver!

I would say the rifle is worth about $500-$600. The scope depends on FFP or SFP model. Total package would be around $800-$1000. It might be "worth" more, but Savage does not hold value like some others. The prices I mentioned are, in my opinion, a "would sell" at price. You could always ask more, but if you really want to sell, buyers really want a deal.

A couple questions would be is the scope FFP? Does the rifle take magazines (DBM)? How many rounds? How does it shoot? Who cute the barrel, and is it threaded?

I had a 10FCP McMillan with some work done to it and some aftermarket parts. It was very smooth for a Savage and shot awesome, I sold it for $800.

The scope is SFP. The magazine is blind, and its the weird bolt spacing (center feed i think they call it?). I cut and crowned the barrel, no threads. I'm not sure how many rounds are through it.

It shoots alright. This is 5 rounds of 168gr FGMM:

It does shoot well. I was thinking that if i could only get $200-$300 for it I'd keep it. I'm starting to do some window shopping for new rifles (see my long range thread).
