Hey All,
Ant idea what a 95% condition #3 in 375 Winchester might go for?
Thanks, Tom

Maybe a grand, maybe more, maybe less.
What fresh Hell is this?

Wow! I thought they might be a little more rare. They’re asking $1950

Register on Gun Broker, log in, in the upper right is Advanced Search, go to finished auctions, put in a description and search most bids. It will show actual sales, not asking price.
It is a very cheap look up for actual value, with pictures.

I’m not cheap, but $1950 is absurd. Lots of nice Number 1s are less, probably some Brownings as well, though I haven’t looked in a while.

I agree wholeheartedly. That’s probably why it’s gathering dust. I told the person selling it that I have to pass.

Besides the price, the market is pretty slow now, and the .375 has a lot of competition in the straight-wall/woods rifle niche. That guy is dreaming.

I have/had a #3 in 375Win, it wasn't a particularly good shooter, and the bullet couldn't stay in the case and reach the lands. It is in the process of being re-barreled to 25Krag.
There is no accounting for taste.
Experience is a great thing as long as one survives it.
Generally, there ain't a lot that separates the two however,
Barely making it is a whole lot more satisfying than barely not making it.

Pac-nor did the barrel and chambering, local smith is mounting it and doing the rail.
If anyone wants a #3 - 375win barrel, I've got one, and a 1A - 270win A barrel.
