I sold a contender for my brother in law a while back and found there are two ways to sell that gun. He had two barrels 1 in 243 and 1 in 7mm-08. What I ended up doing was parting his out. I think I ended up getting about 850 for it all. The problem with that gun is that people like to be able to build it themselves. I know that when it comes down to barrel selection and caliber selection everyone has thier own opinons. Just an option for you to think about.
