Value of Sako Varmint

[JohnC]

Hi guys/gals

Just picked up a Sako Varmint heavy barrel, no sights - (I have the box end which says Vixen and with Varmint ticked off) in .223 Rem. I'd say it's in the 95 to 98% NRA range - not a scratch on the metal, couple of tiny bumps on the really nice wood. Not sure whether to keep it or sell it - Trying to find out what it's worth up here. My 3 year old blue book says around $800US, but those prices don't always seem to work here.

All opinions welcome


Thanks

John

I bought a similar rifle last year mine has a laminated stock, vg+ shape, sporter weight barrel. I paid $900.
I'm very happy with mine.

Try shooting it before you sell it.... I have a Sako Vixen in .222 and it is by far the most accurate rifle that I've owned. Your rifle might be worth keeping!

Yeah the Vixen actions are gold... there are a couple of fellows on this site that will hunt you down for one.
