What do you expect to get for trade-in value?

dealers all said it was werth $300-$325... I only gave $130 for it, but that was 13 years ago...

only problem was that there was only one M917 there in .17 HMR... and the guy wanted a hunert dollars more fer it than I could get it fer at Wally World... that and he only offered me $275 fer mine, I told him tuh get bent...

coulda got it in .17 Mach2, but that'd be givin' up 400 fps... and 100 yds in effective range...that won't cut it...

so I left empty handed... but a couple guys offered to buy the 10/.22 if I didn't trade it in... we'll see...

Been looking at used 10/22's in the 130-150 range, is all.

My condolences on your .17-lessness.

Hmm. sounds like you did the right thing. There's other chances to make the right deal.
