Not being a gun guru, I need some advise from the collective wisdom of the board.
I have a late 1980s vintage Weatherby 300 Magnum with left hand action, walnut stock and similar vintage Redfield scope. I bought it in the early 1990s unfired from the original owner and have fired about a dozen rounds through it trying to sight it in but find it a bit much for my aging shoulder.
Not being a hunter or or serious collector I am trying to decide whether to keep it around for collecton value or sell it. I do not know what it might be worth in todays market.
It has always been kept in a sock inside a humidity controlled gun safe but it just sits there and I will likely never again fire it. I have 4 or 5 boxes of factory ammunition with it.
Anyone have any thoughts for a 60+ year old who does not need to sell it.?
