What would be the value of this Winchester Model 70 rifle?

[BendeS]

I would like to know the value of a Winchester Model 70, .375 Left Hand, Super Express limited edition Rifle.

Nice rifle, I have a Right Hand. A couple years ago you could get them in pristine condition for $800. However, I've seen them go as high as $1500 on Gun Broker recently due to market demands. Left Handed makes for fewer buyers and can knock the price down a bit. The VX3 scopes hold their value on Ebay. I don't think this group is going to believe it to be as valuable as the Gunbroker crowd does though.

If selling the package here, I'd probably start out at $1300

I'll buy it for that .. I've a left handed son ....

I think a M70 left hand 375 is worth more than $1300. Try to find a new one.
@sgt_zim aren’t out a lefty, can you shed some light here?

I’m lefty, I would pursue buying from you if currently for sale, at a premium.

Last couple I’ve seen go over the last 2 years have been anywhere from $800-5500, for basic models to Winchester custom shop. Fair price and I think a good average for others I’ve seen sold, $1500-2500 depending on buyer. Left handed magnum length actions are becoming harder to come by, by the day.

As a new member, could you share a bit about yourself, where you're located, provenance on the rifle, why you're considering selling, any hunting you've done, etc.

Thanks,

John

Yeah, I would pay more than 1300 for a M70 LH in 375, esp. since Winchester doesn't, and hasn't for a while, make anything in LH.

Whatever a lefy hand shooter looking for a quality rifle is willing to pay....

No idea, I'll bet getting it conveyed to right hand would cost a bit.

 

[leslie hetrick]

as a left handed rifle shooter and having to adapt to right hand rifles in my earier hunting years. as they became more available, i picked up a few. ruger md 77 hawkeye in 300 win mag-- md 70 in 7mm mag-- md 70 in 300 win mag-- md 700 rem in 7mm08-- CZ md 452 in .22 and a 1953 md 12 in12ga with a left hand safety added.

I bought a Model 70 Safari Express new about 4 years ago and paid around $1600. Put a Leupold scope on it and sold it to a friend for an African hunt and gave him a buddy price of $1800.

I would think that in today's market $1800-$2200 and with the scope and mounting system $2500 wouldn't be too much.

Your 2k average is about the same as mine!

Easily $2,000-$2,500USD... Which sucks, as I'm a Lefty, they make us pay through the nose... A Left Hand version generally goes for at least a Grand more than a Right Hand model...

@BendeS...Send me a PM with your personal contact information so I can verify you are who you say you are, since you are a new member and have no history here. I am not even a lefty, but will buy it tomorrow at one of these low prices some of our members are estimating.

That's the truth

 

[DG Gunsmith]

I wish I had the funds, I'd be fightin' the lot o' you over that one... Never had a Left Hand Bolt Action...

 

[DG Gunsmith]

That would be sacrilegious!

Here's another thread from last year... Yours appears to be a more deluxe version o' the Model 70... But, this is a price comparison, to at least give you a Ball Park... https://www.africahunting.com/threads/for-sale-left-hand-winchester-375-h-h-with-box.58113/
