What model of Leupold? Older Vari X-II or Vari X-III or newer VX-II or VX-III? Since the SPS rifles came out, prices of 700s have come down on the used market. Hard to get $800 for a used rifle when you can buy a New one for $500.00. Most guys don't look at the difference in quality in terms of polishing, blued finish vs. matte black finish and nice piece of wood, vs. mass produced plastic stocks. So you have the choice of eating the loss or keeping the rifle. If your rifle is stainless, you should have a little better luck selling it. It isn't a limited editon "Classic" though. However, the .257 Roberts has a following, so one of those guy will probably snap it up quickly.
