Asking for a buddy as he wanted me to try and find out. I checked out Gunbroker.com and it seems prices are all over the board. Anyway it's a Howa Model 1500 7mm Rem Mag. That's what it says on it. I've never heard of this brand however it looks fairly nice. It says made in ***an and imported by Interarms Alexandria, VA.
It has a Vanguard 3x9x50 scope on it model number VRS-531E. This scope had a big made in China sticker on it and looked cheap to me but I don't know much about it.
Any ideas on what this thing is worth? I'd say condition is 80-90%. It has a few knicks and scratches and one decent sized knick but honestly for a used gun it looks to be in good shape.
The guy is thinking of trading a semi auto 10 gauge shotgun I think Ithica he thinks is worth $700 or so. Is this a good deal? Any ideas on what this gun or scope or both is worth?
Blue Book on the Howa 1500 rifle is about $400. The scope is an "off-brand" and personally I would not give it much value at all. Maybe $50 used , if not buggered up. The Ithaca 10ga. autoloader, if in good shape, is Blue Book for about $600+/-.
depends on what your shotgun is worth condtion of both and wether you want a 10 ga more or the rifle

Anyone know what a Ithica 10 gauge shotgun is worth? Would it be a fair trade to trade these evenly? The guy that has the 10 gauge thinks he will use the 7mm a lot more so that's why he is thinking of trading but was wondering what his 10 gauge was worth too.

Looks like the shotgun is worth about $200.00 more than the Howa.

I believe that he would be gettin the better of the deal, if a 10 gauge is what he wants. I used the Ithaca before and was a pleasure to shoot in the rice fields. If it where me and the condition on the ithaca was good I would jump on it like a duck on a June bug
