I picked up a Mauser in 300 Win Mag in a trade a few months back, I did some work to it and I'm debating selling it. Not really hurting for money or anything just would like to have a little extra money to help with Christmas and invest in my other guns. What would be a fair asking price on something like this (details below)? I understand since it's been highly sporterized there isn't any "collectibility" to the rifle but it's still worth something right?
It looks to be a Czech BRNO 98/22 Mauser (picture of proof marks before Cerakote and stock work done.)
*it's had the mag well enlarged to accept 300 Win Mag (3 shot rifle)
*it's had the bolt head and extractor modded to accept 300 Win Mag
* it's been rebarreled with I believe a 24" Winchester barrel
*it's been threaded for a muzzle break
*it's been put in a synthetic Winchester "Ramline" stock
*it's had the bolt handle cut and welded and bent to clear a scope.
*the receiver has been drilled, tapped and had scope mounts installed
*the safety has been enlarged and sloped to clear a scope.
*the barrel, action, trigger guard assembly, etc have been Cerakoted black (professionally)
*the stock has been painted to look like a Texas flag with automotive paint (professionally) $I live in Texas$
*has 1" scope rings sporting a BSA Platnium 8-32x44 scope
*has a Harris Bi-Pod installed
*has a Decelerator installed
*the bolt assembly has all been polished
*soon it will be sporting a Timney featherweight trigger
Note I didn't do most of the gunsmith work to the gun, just did a little work to make it look nicer.
NOTE. This isn't an ad to sell the rifle, ONLY to see what it is worth. Can't sell it at the moment anyway because it's making a trip to a gun show at the end of the month to be shown off.
