It's a .222, it's a BDL, and it's new in the box. Any of those are unusual. All three in the same rifle = premium price.

If Montana had a standing army, a 270 Win with Federal Blue Box 130's would be the standard issue.

Pretty cool little gun but not for money like that... is the gun worth it... only for someone collecting and not for a shooter... You could build a fantastic custom gun on a 700 action and buy high end glass for that type of money... and it would probably shoot better as well.

No not worth that, just some dipshit with too much money.He'll get a 3 day inspection , all his friends will tell him he is crazy and he will send it back. Seller gets left with holding the bag and a bunch of shipping, insurance cost and possibly a fugged up rifle from shipping...mb

I’m wanting to buy a Model Seven SS in 260 at a reasonable price. Maybe one day it’ll happen. 🤞

The .222s were only produced for a short time before they dropped it in favor of the .223, so a NIB one is probably the cat's ass to a Seven collector.

I bought a 223 when they first came out. Mine was a tackdriver. I sold it to buy something I would use more.

That one is. But you can’t generalize, as others have said. Rare configuration and condition; overall the market is much weaker than it was a year ago.

On stuff that is being sold by companies/businesses note how many of the high bidders are either N/R or have just a few positive feedback.
On my part, once I see the price being driven up by an NR bidder or someone wit a half dozen posts or less, I cease bidding.
If it's a brick and mortar store, they can sell it to themselves, pay the listing fees, and sell it out of their store or pawn shop. The fees, when auctions which are started at $.01, do not amount to much. The buyer can be a straw man. Who knows other than the seller and buyer whether the deal actually happens. The fees are paid to Gunbroker , the seller takes a generous profit (I have not problem with profit) and moves on. It's hard to lose by making a profit, and the bank pays less than 2% on CD's.
Just sayin'

I’m not surprised at that auction sale price. Are they gold? No. But they are a solid platform in certain chamberings. I have a 20” 7mm 08 that I’m keeping a long time.

GWB Good point on the NR bidders. I personally know of a bunch of those that don’t pay after the auction closes.

Conversely, I have contacted GunBroker Mgmt. on numerous occasions when scammers that are new sellers copy and paste guns off Guns International, etc. No response. I did see one guy who would bid on the scammer's high dollar guns until he won then not pay. On GunBroker, if you are the winning bidder, you can leave feedback, and tell the world that the seller is a scammer. ya! GWB
