What is the value of a wards Mauser bolt action model 60-720A 30-06 cal?

i did not receive a answer to my question. i now have a second question . what quality is this rifle . we have a small problem with caliber. Early Mausers used a 7.62 mm caliber. The English equal, the Enfield .303 in. were the mainstays of early 20th Century armies. The Boers demonstrated the far greater accuracy of the Mauser on numerous occasions.A Mauser 30-06. appears to be a derivitive hunting rifle post 1945 adapted to use Brit/American pattern long barrel ammunition. Value? who knows. A Mauser ended my Great-Uncles life in the First World War. He had a Ross, based and fed on the Enfield. I suspect your Mauser is a higher quality hunting rifle, post WWII, without scope 600-800 Euros
