I would buy a ticket or two if I was within driving distance. Sadly though I am not and anyone who I could get to buy me a ticket I couldnt trust not to keep the gun for themselves claiming they in fact bought the winning ticket

I wonder how much they cost per unit.

I have no clue but the scope alone is 1200 easily. My guess would be that you could sell the rifle for 4-5k to half of the people who go to the auction if you won.

Sadly most of those riles wont ever get used they will just sit on someone's wall collecting dust.
