The Westernfield model number will be necessary for identification.

This post should be placed in the shotgun section.

Various companies made bolt actions in single shot, 3 shot magazine, or 5 shot tubular feed configurations and many were marketed with Montgomery Wards, Sears, and numerous other trade names. The values can vary from $50 to $150 or so depending on model and condition.

Yours should make a great little squirrel/rabbit gun.

A clue to age is, if it doesn't have a serial number it was made prior 1968. Cheap guns usually didn't have one.
A lot of the Wards bolt shot guns were made by Mossberg
