Those were very popular with the military rifle teams and some state teams. They ate heavy use a heavier tripod and very good for long range work. they are expensive pieces new and on the used market. I dont know what they are bringing anymore though.

They normally seen light use as the coach carried them from line to line ( most got a golf cart to boot). Unlike the individual scopes that the shooter carried with all his gear.

Oh, that's old optical stuff, it's quite heavy and hardly anyone does team competitions anymore. And everyone knows modern scopes are lighter, have much better anti-reflective coatings and are far superior to old scopes, right? Even so, just to help you out, I'll give you $50 for it. :)

look on ebay at Kowa spotting scopes. Then figure they are of almost the same quality as the Unertl

The last published price on the Team Scope from Unertl was around $3600. I got mine at an auction for $285. Somewhere in between I guess. The awesome thing about the Team Scope is its stability. Wind has far less impact on all that mass and tripod than lighter scope/tripod setups. The downside is the same. Its heavy and awkward. I love it for running hunters sightins because it is stable and I'm able to transit smoothly and easily across numerous banks of targets.

I'd say versatility wise, the Kowa is a better place to put your money but the big Unertl certainly gets style points.

Mine just has the 32X eyepiece, I'd love to find the lower power eyepieces to complete the kit.

As stated they are too large and heavy for normal use. I had controlled of one for many years. It was part of the Air National Guard's Highpower Rifle teams' equipment list. I have seen them sell for as high a $3,000. I would jump on one for $500 and might go a little more but not much.

i,m going to offer 7-8 hundred to start and may go to a 1000.00.

i bought it for 1200.00, he found the third eye piece and the papers it came with.

You will not be disappointed! Everyone will have "Spotting Scope Envy" when you whip that bad boy out! Seriously though, another good thing about this scope is the reduction in fatigue when you have to spend a lot of time on the glass. Its low vibration and bright large image keep eye fatigue down a bit. I don't think you will be disappointed. I'd really like to get a 15X eyepiece for lower light viewing for mine.
Congrats!
