RE: Question for y'all
ORIGINAL: Hurley Well I was wondering what a brand new .300 Winchester Ultra Mag goes for these days.
I was lucky enough to win one at the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation Dinner this year and i was wondering how much it's worth. The reason i'm wondering is because i'm looking to sell it. I'm young and still in college and can't afford the ammo for it[&:] and i already have a 30.06 and a 7mm for my elk and deer hunting. So i'm hoping to get a decent amount from selling in order to buy myself a nice handgun.

And you probably won't even get a kiss out of the deal.
They'll tell you some story about re-sale value, blah, blah, blah. Then they'll sell it to one of their employees or their friends. Sell it to somebody that wants it, and will give you a fair price.

Please consider selling one of your other rifles, but if you just have to sell this one then do as UncleNorby suggested and sell it privately. You may have to be patient, but you will get a better price. I would suggest posting a for-sale notice with some hunting clubs in your area. Also you might want to try selling at some events where there are guys with a high level of disposable income, like an antique car show or some type of horse event (like cutting horses). Best of luck.

Hurley, If you must sell it, I suggest that you not go to a gun dealer at first. Try listing it on gunsamerica.com at whaterver you think is a fair price. Put as much info in the ad as you can. You will undoubtly get a lot of responses for this fine looking rifle.
Good luck
