How great did i do on this buy?

[Jackal]

Hi guys, take a look at this sweet little number. She's a Winchester M70XTR Featherweight .270 with a Ziess Diavari C 3-9x42 scope. Also has a BEAUTIFUL Maple stock and gold plated trigger/scope rings/safety lever. What did i pay for it u ask???? Try $700.00 at a garage sale To say im happy is an understatment. Also came with a really nice stainless steel rifle case.

I'm jealous!

That's truely a beautiful gun. Nice job!

 

[Ohen Cepel]

It's not something I know much about. However, I think the scope is worth what you paid (maybe more)!

Nice find!

PS- where in the world are you yard sailing ?

 

[jjohnson]

Way more than jealous.

Oh, I'm gonna barf!

Jeez, you may as well go buy a lotto ticket as long as you're on a lucky streak.
The scope alone is worth about half that or so.... ugh....I gotta go barf again.

 

[Eightball]

......wow. That zeiss i could be worth around 600 alone--I know they are where I work. You got ONE HECKUVA DEAL, man.............any chance you want to sell it to me, as is, for that price? I'd give $750 for it, you could make a quick profit.....

 

[TomFromTheShade]

Hmm...

Rifle..$500-$600

Scope...$$$$LOTS

Case...$50 at least

So you did well. You got about over a thousand dollars worth of stuff.

 

[rangerruck]

what stocls or bonds are you currently interested in? just curious...

 

[Jackal]

By the way guys, did i mention it will put Federal Premium 130gr. ammo through one hole at 50 yds.?? Also asked my unkle about the stock, he said alone it would probably run about $500.00 for the exhibition grade, 100% figured maple stock after finishing and all. HAPPY The only thing i dont like is the Ziess's eye relief is a little too short at 9x.

Son!!

From now on, whenever I buy a lottery ticket, I'm gonna come rub my hand over your post for good luck !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got it from a garage sale at a HUGE!!!, fancy, waterfront brick house. The sad thing was, when i was paying for this rifle the guy taking the money said that "i should have been here earlier, there were some really good deals". -tear/cry-

bling bling

That is one pimplicious rifle. Do they make rifle racks for Escalades?

 

[foghornl]

Where is the "sickly green with envy" smiley when ya need it ? ?

Scope alone is probably worth more than what ya paid...SUPER DEAL!

 

[raz-0]

everyone seems to be leaving out the fact that the hunk of wood the rifle is sitting in is worth a pretty penny. A stock sized chunk of AA-AAA flame maple is not cheap.

 

[Roadwild17]

Jackal, I need 6 numbers between 1 and 46 from you,, QUICK!!!!!

 

[Jackal]

Just ran onto a problem. The action cant be removed from the stock. Im guessing the bedding compound caused a mechanical lock around the recoil lug area. hmmmm...... Try as i might it wont come loose.

 

[Dr.Rob]

It's a little pimpalicious for my taste, but it sounds like you got a great deal.

 

[270Win]

Beautiful!!

 

[possum]

great find and a great deal, I don't much like the gold, but hey, if you love it, that is all that matters. Beautiful stock!

 

[ArmandTanzarian]

Umm, yeah, I hate you too! Smokin deal; beautiful rifle; congrats!

pimpalicious

 

[Haymaker]

Awwww - DANG!

You done GOOD!
Envy is a SIN! - So I'm putting you on my 'ignore' list (joke)

 

[Jackal]

I just happened to find something on the floorplate. NNNNNOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Its a little spot of rust. I am now depressed. My killer rifle has gun cancer.
