The US military uses mostly 7.62x51 and most of their actions are builds of the Remington 700. I play golf with a former Marine sniper and he woudl literally be laughing if someone tried to sell or trade him a .223 passed off as a sniper rifle.
Get a pic of the gun and scope. Even in .223 it COULD be worth some cash if it has the proper stocks and glass. Some of the higher end scopes can be big money. If it has some $200 scope on it, then do not even bother looking at it any further.
