Blue Book Value of Guns?
Anyone have the blue book of gun values? I have a New In Box Remington 700 CDL .300 Remington Ultra Magnum with the X Mark Pro trigger system and a 26" blued barrel. I will be trading it towards another less powerful rifle and would like to know what offers to expect from the dealers that go by the blue book value.

The Blue book says $879.00. You can expect offer's from dealer's of 70% of that value or less. Most stocking dealer's have a lot of overhead, and need to make money too. I suggest, listing it on the auction side, starting at $699.00, with no reserve. Create a bidding war, and you should do well. But don't expect more than $800.00ish. That is a popular rifle, and somewhat popular caliber.

I agree with tsr. It's been my experience gun shop dealers will offer you on the way less than 70% side-more like 50%. Some MIGHT give you a little better if you are doing a trade instead of just straight selling it to them but don't count on it. 0 -
Thanks for the information. I'm not looking to get full value when I trade it in. I won it on a twenty five dollar gun bash ticket and have no use for the ultra mag, just want to get a Savage .25-06 or .30-06 and not have to add money to it in order to walk out the door with it. All the dealers I have called want me to bring the gun in and look at it, even though it's brand new and never been out of the box. I don't want to drive all over the north east trying to find someone who will trade a Savage for a Remington. A couple more phone calls and if nothing happens it will be listed on here starting at $.01 no reserve. 0
