Rem 700 .17 varmint barrel value?

I have a Rem 700 BDL in .17Rem that has a factory varmint weight S/S barrel. The rifle is a pre bolt lock, blue reciever. The barrel has all the right factory markings, and is not a custom shop model. I have verified the S/N with Remington. It's been shot very little, and I (not a pro here) would call it about 98% or better. I am trying to find out what a reasonable asking price would be. It will be for sale soon.

"take off" barrels run about $50 give or take...

They can actually be great bargains for the right guy.

Obviously my post was not clear. The rifle is complete, and it is the complete rifle that I am seeking info on. The barrel is not, and will never be available as a take off.

Thanks

Wood stocked 700BDL-V in 17Rem? $475-$525
If it has a scope figuire the scope adds
50% of the scope's retail value, but only
IF it is a halfway decent scope.

Of course if Cabela's was selling this rifle used they'd jack the price up by another $125, but I'm convinced that whoever prices used rifles at Cabela's is trying to support a drug habit.
