MartinPottsHelp ! Winchester .351
Could one of you tell me if $ 150.00 is to much to pay for a Winchester .351 self loading ?
The rifle has a darkened bore i can see riflings
I ran a cloth down it but its still dirty inside and as its not mine YET i did not want to clean it up for them so thay would rise the price on me it has one clip the stocks ok
( no cracks ) the forarms ok ( no cracks ) the blue is almost gone whats left of it is up under the barrel
Shells feed in to it
Tell me what you think

TailgunnerIt's about right for one in such poor condition.
If your looking for somtning to shoot, you might want to check out the ammo prices for 351 SLR ammo (comming from someone that has a 35 SLR to feed)

Chuck WhiteSounds like a fair price for one of these old rifles!
I checked with GPI, quite a few years ago and just the clip for one of these guns was right around $50.00
Cabela's has ammo for .351 WSL for $26.99/20.

AtkinsonI wouldn't pay that for it if the bore is shot, and it sounds like to me its pretty well gone...bottom line is for a bit more you can get a lot more gun..like a nice Win. M-94 thats rough but has a shiney bore or a post 64 model in pretty good shape. I picked up a real nice old Marlin 336 in 30-30 for $150, about 70% blue and mint bore and shoots great....

TailgunnerThat's what I was refering to price wise, 1.35 a shot for 357Mag proformance.
