re: Fair trade value for a 30-30 and .17HMR?

Is it the laminate, thumb hole stock? and which scope? The gun itself new is $400 I think, so with a good scope (not sure which simmons you have) I would think you could get $300 for it at least.

And if I were picking, I would keep a .17hmr over a .22. Better range, accuracy and balistics. I just like the round better for hunting. If you're just plinking though, ammo cost catches up with you.
