My gunsmith has a customer asking the value. I don't really know them that well. He described it as having a very good bore, all original, 1958 build, original recoil pad with a little life left, hunted and in good hunting condition, but not a collectible. Again, Pre 64 M70, .375H&H, 1958 serial number. Ball park value? BUTCH C'est Tout Bon (It is all good) | ||

2017 Blue Book: "Model 70 Standard Grade (1946-1963 Production) 100%: $4000 98%: $3500 95%: $3150 90%: $2375 80%: $2150 70%: $1850 60%: $1500 Add 10% for .300 H&H or .375 H&H if rear receiver is not drilled and tapped." Beater: Whatever the greater fool than I will pay. And from the same period of production, though all but the "African" (.458 Win.Mag.) Super Grades were discontinued about 1960: "Model 70 Super Grade (.375 H&H) 100%: $7000 98%: $6150 95%: $5250 90%: $4600 80%: $4000 70%: $3500 60%: $3000" Beater: Whatever the greater fool than I will pay. Anyone who claims the .458 Winchester Magnum is ineffective has either not tried one, or is unwittingly commenting on their own sheepishness. Rip... | |||

Butch, about $2,500 would seem to be the going rate for a non-collectible pre-64 375 M70. | |||

The price on them is pretty soft here in Alaska as I have picked up two from dealers for under $1500 Anyone who claims the 30-06 is ineffective has either not tried one, or is unwittingly commenting on their own marksmanship Phil Shoemaker Alaska Master guide FAA Master pilot NRA Benefactor www.grizzlyskinsofalaska.com | |||

Gun sales In Idaho are more geographical than most places, the rough ones with a decent bore and the 60 percenters in 375 H&H are priced at $2000 to $2500 or perhaps more. a 90% gun would be priced at $4500 or more and probably wouldn't sell locally.. The market for Win. mod 70s in 375 H&H low end are higher than most places because the locals want them to hunt and condition isn't all that important to most. As with most things in Idaho are cheaper, its the economy that sets the prices on most guns..Collector guns are pretty hard to sell locally.. As a side point, I shot a 385 bull elk going South at an angle, the bullet landed just behind the last right rib and exited behind the left ear leaving a 2 inch exit hole, and tumbled that bull head over heels, that's a lot of penetration anyway you cut it, and the butcher said damage inside was awesome..I used a RN 350 gr. Woodleigh..Same results on a Bisho bull sometime later.. The 350 gr. bullet in a .375 ups its kill score to a .416 or so it seems to me, and why wouldn't it! At least that's my take on the subject, rural guns sell for less than metro guns..
