All Browning A-Bolt
.234 one of five hundred, gold inlay Antelope, fired less than twenty times
.270 one of six hundred, gold inlay Bighorn Sheep, never fired.
.30-06 one of one thousand, gold inlay Mule Deer, this is the Sports Afield Centennial Rifle, never fired.
All topped with Leupold Vari-XIII 6.5x20 scopes and come complete with all original boxes and hardside carrying cases.
Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated.

De - Thes are all worthless. If you want, just pack them up and I will take them off your hands. I'll force myself to cover the shipping charges.
Hey, it was worth a shot.
I assume you mean the first one is a .243?? Being fired does reduce the cost considerably. A new A-bolt without any additional work goes for about $600. I would think that the .243 should sell for $700 (or less) and the .270 and 06 for no less than $1000
You may want to try gunsamerica.com and see if any of these rifles are listed and what they are getting. Also, gunbroker.com and auctionarms.com.
These may be a good starting point.
I would really like to see some pictures of these rifles. I may be interested.

From:
bronko was right on OFF THE SHELF gun prices, but NONE of these would appear to be off the shelf. The scopes alone sell new for $600-$650 in cabela's catalog. These are collectors guns and are worth MUCH more especially the unfired ones. Keep in mind they may be "worth" $2-$3000, but getting that much for them can be difficult and nearly impossible on short notice. If you want top dollar get em appraised , price them slightly under appraisal, then take them to a dealer that accepts consinments and then wait. If your in a hurry you'll get MUCH less.

NVMIKE,
Thank you so much for your reply and your good advice. I am in no hurry but I really don't know how to reach the right market. If you have any more suggestions or advice it will be greatly appreciated. Thanks again. DeSutter
