Ask if there is some sort of warranty regarding a minimum accuracy. For instance: "If it shoots worse than 2 MoA, can I return it?"
LOL. I gotta tease you about that one. I think most sellers will laugh right in your face if you ask that. Because most buyers lack the skill to shoot 2 MOA with any rifle, new or used.

The rest of Smaug's suggestions are good. Check the bolt and bolt face for rust or pitting. Check the extractor and ejector for chips/breaks. Check the chamber and throat for rust, pitting, or erosion (watch for black streaks in the throat area). Check the muzzle (barrel crown) for dings or dents. Check the trigger housing to see if it looks like someone has unscrewed the housing and tried to do a home job on the trigger. Look at the bore/action and see if there's a ton of gunk like carbon to indicate lack of cleaning.

That's the best I can suggest. Good luck!
