Looking to list a rifle on Armslist, I have no idea what to ask.

Winchester short action laminate stock ( it was a Winchester Coyote Rifle)

26 inch Douglas Premium barrel. ( very heavy)

284 Winchester.

6-24 Sightron dot scope. Tally rings 20 MOA base

About 75 rounds through it.

Toss in 7 boxes of sierra 168 grain match kings.

No idea what to charge.
 
Give you a hundred bucks right now!:D

On a serious note...how much do you want for it? And how well does it shoot? And how much do you have into it? You will still likely take a loss on it, how much depends on how long you can wait to sell it.
 
It was a short action Winchester M70 Coyote. Plus.
26" is kind of long. Magnum length barrel with a non-magnum deer cartridge. The DP barrel is a plus if it was in a well known match chambering.
.284 Win is not a plus. No easily had factory ammo. Seasonal only by Winchester. Over $50 per 20 when it can be had too. According to Midway and Grafs.
Neither is a 6X-24X scope for that chambering. Too much magnification for a deer cartridge.
Match kings aren't for hunting anything but varmints. The .284 Win is primarily a hunting cartridge.
The whole of this limits your market. Means you'll likely be sitting on it for a while. It'd help to throw in the brass, dies and shell holder.
A BNIB Coyote in regular chamberings runs a bit over grand depending on the retailer.
 
About 50-75% of what a comparable new gun sells for is usually a fair price. Same for optics. Custom features sometimes add a little to the value, but at times reduce the value.

I'd break up the stuff and sell separately, I think you'll get more. You'll probably not get anywhere near what you have in the rifle and barrel, but selling the bullets and scope separately will help.
