Just say what I say we need scopes to see antlers in low light conditions.
Its true we can see them better with scopes.

If its an M96 with all matching numbers even the wood, w/range plate its worth good/very good condition $200 and up to excellent condition $300 but it maybe worth much more in the near future with these getting harder to find.
If its an M38 it maybe worth $25 to $50 more than the M96.
If you have an excellent one you may want to pick up a barreled action from samco and a stock with all the hardware from numrich and scope that one. Or look for one scoped at a gun show I have seen them selling for around $200 with scope.
