WIW VQ 17hmr

[kiimosabe]

I hate to admit but "CRAFT Disease" has set in bad and am asking for a WIW before I list. I bought this gun from original owner 2-3 years ago and have never shot it. To nice to take hunting so it has sat in the safe every since I acquired it and want to list, but I dont want to short change myself and give to great of a bargain or rip someone off, just want to be fair to both....

Enclosed are two pics from the previous owner as they were presented to me before I purchased.

Volquartsen Deluxe chambered in a 17hmr, SS fluted Barrel with built in muzzle brake, grey laminated thumbhole stock
4x12 Vortex with adjustable AO
Came with its own VQ hard case.

All opinions welcomed......

not sure if this helps, but a barreled action like the one shown, chambered in 22WMR is listed for 2299 in Canada. The vortex looks like a crossfire maybe (240ish new on sale)? The stock is an oddball to me, probably 200-300. all told this looks like a 2800ish package new. That may be a start. I'm sure other will have differing opinions. Beautiful rifle, wish i could afford to take it off your hands

That is the I-Fluted model. Not the deluxe which has straight flutes.

I went by what is embossed on the receiver and it says Deluxe. But not knowledgeable enough on VQs to know the difference. It was an impulse buy.......as usual.

I'd estimate replacement at ~$2700, if I were to list it I'd ask $2200 as reasonable, give or take a little.

Thanks GD7 and others for some guidance.
