Can any of you gents (or ladies) help me with accurate pricing on a Winchester (recent) left-hand .375 H&H? Granted, my Gun Value (bluebook) is a couple of years old, but the prices on Gunbroker are WAY over what a 99% or sometimes even a 100% is listed for. Yes, I've got the right model. Same,exact model in RH (even includes a cheap scope) is almost $1,200.00 cheaper. Is the LH seller just dreaming, hoping to get 2K? I don't HAVE to have a .375. I just like the round; sold my dog of a LH Mauser, and have some ammo left. 'Headed to Zim this summer and can take a .416 Rigby (RH) I have. 'Just wanted y'all's opinion. Thanks. | ||

I browse most buy & sells frequently. 2k for a LH Winny is about right. I have seen them cheaper, but they dont last long. Typically they sell pretty quick, even when they are 1800-2000. I couldnt justify it, so I had an MRC built exactly how I wanted, mind you it cost more than 2k, it is EXACTLY how I want it.

I found that because they are left hand and no longer made (less of them out there), they're getting more $. Look at the price for a LH CZ. They're getting 1700$ new from the factory. NOt sure if I'd sell my LH 375 M70. May never shoot it unless I head to Africa (hopefully), but I have it in case I do. | |||

Are you referring to the .375 left hand winnie on Gun broker? 1990.00? That very rifle has been on and off GB for a long time, at least a year. I've never seen a single bid on it at 1990.00 | |||

They are worth what someone will pay. They seem to sell rather easily at $1,400 - 1,500. Higher than that they sit for awhile. You can build a new stainless MRC and drop it into a McMillan stock for about $1,500. Add extra for iron sights. My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost. | |||

There was one on Auction Arms earlier in the week for around 1600. ****************************************************************** R. Lee Ermey: "The deadliest weapon in the world is a Marine and his rifle." ****************************************************************** We're going to be "gifted" with a health care plan we are forced to purchase and fined if we don't, Which purportedly covers at least ten million more people, without adding a single new doctor, but provides for 16,000 new IRS agents, written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that didn't read it but exempted themselves from it, and signed by a President, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes, for which we'll be taxed for four years before any benefits take effect, by a government which has already bankrupted Social Security and Medicare, all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that's broke!!!!!

"They are worth what someone will pay." I have two of them one is from the last production that I bought new off the shelf for the regular price. I cant remember but it was around 1,200 bucks. A liitle over a year ago I came accross one of the very first left hand .375's built, the fit the finish the bluing was so damn nice, plus a great piece of wood, I couldnt get the 1,800 bucks out of my pocket fast enough. The first one is thicker in the grip and a little straiter in the stock and the finish isnt all that special, it is on the way to becoming a .416. If you look around at the options for us lefties 2,000 bucks all of a sudden aint to bad, plus I dont see them going down in price. So in 5 years "unless they go into left hand production again" I bet the price will be more maybe a lot more. There's my two bits for what it is worth. | |||
