Regarding accuracy, In the US, standard sporting rifles weren't made for accuracy. Chambers are overly long and large in diameter, for that purpose and the barrels not made to match standards, usually oversize too. I've had sporter 22LR, original barrels, in excellent condition, that would only do 3+" groups at 100 and using match ammo, was a waste. In rifles that old, they've also had a lot of corrosive ammo put through them, that detract from their accuracy. I think re-lining it, would be the best thing you could do, especially if they still make thoughts excellent Parker liners but, any good liner, with a match chamber, will make it shoot well. Regarding value, we would have to see pictures to give a good idea. Good wood, metal and barrel, would put it in the $~600 range. Frank
