It really is whatever your 'local' market is; and/or how much you want one. I remember a couple of years ago seeing a .17 for $200 with a scope I didnt want; I didnt think to ask how much without it, or figure a 'throw away' at $40 for it and the rifle would be $160. So.....I didnt get it and havent seen one around here for less.
Bottom line, just like with a car or truck, you figure what you can afford and go from there, doesnt really matter what another one might sell for someplace else.
