Value of bench rifle?

[XBT]

Can anyone make an informed guess as to the value of this rifle? Stolle Panda action, Jewell trigger. Barrel is marked “GOODLING RIFLES 6mm PPC .262 neck”. Scope is Bausch & Lomb Elite 4000 36X. Barrel is reported to be nearly new, metal all looks good, few dings on stock. I shot it and got 100 yard groups of .200".

it would cost about 2500 bucks to build that rifle. Used price,dont know. Sid goodling is a very respected gunsmith in penn.

Well, that gun is clearly defective. Bolts on the wrong darn side.

It's really funny how price can drop because everyone figures that there is something wrong with the gun because you wouldn't be selling it other wise. Sometimes, you will get more out of it by breaking it up into parts again.

Action is $1000, stock $3/400, nothing for the caliber / barrel because ilife expectancy can't be trusted for competition. Trigger @ $200. Scopes are usually better auctioned on ebay.

My guess is $1600 without the scope, unless someone saw it shoot and really wanted it.

Thanks for the information guys; it’s worth about what I thought.

Well heck
I'm feeling generous today.
Gun's pretty well shot out, limited number of potential purchasers.
I'll send you the shipping and dispose of it for you.
You find any other old clunkers like that and want some one to dispose of it just let me know.
In between selling shares in the Brooklyn Bridge I send ya the shipping.

I dont see why they built it right bolt/right port. That may be a bit of a negative for a lot of benchrest guys. I think everyone is pretty close on the values. Nice looking setup.

I've heard lots of good stuff about the 6mm PPC as far as bench rests go. If I had more money then I knew what to do with, I would love to get one built.
