My son was gifted a Model 70 243 BLM w/walnut stock, he already has a 243 and I would like to trade for something different. I have looked for a value of this gun but can never find a list for this gun. It is in near perfect condition and has only been shot 4 times. Can anyone help with a value?

If it is missing the mark on the underside that says “ANDY” it is practically worthless. I’ll give ya $20 for the scrap [Linked Image]

Seriously. What grade is it? And forgive me but what is BLM?

I assume you are talking about a Winchester Model 70. Could you put up a picture so people have a better idea of what the rifle is & what it is worth.

There are so incarnations, New Haven commands better prices than anything out of the Carolinas.

Really need several good pictures with serial, pictures of the recoil pad markings, markings on the barrel, what type of magazine system, blind, detachable or floor plate.

“There are so incarnations”

Forgive my ignorance but are you saying there are tons of options out there? Is that what you mean?

He probably meant iterations.

Sorry, I had been up 21+ hrs at that point and I didn't catch the autocorrect of my misspelling of variations, rednecker version: more options than you can shake a stick at
