Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds Price check: M70 .284 DBM

This is a tough one to let go of, but it's probably time. Near new condition, only noticeable flaw is two small scratches (see picture). Looking for opinions on value. Apparently only 90 to 200 made in this caliber.

Couple more:

1500+

Only one bid, someone really wanted that rifle.

But it only takes one.

Yep.

Seems like there was a flurry of them in the last year. Couple on gunbroker but unfortunately I didn’t screenshot the endings. You might search the Winchester collectors thread as the information might have ended up there with the final price - my recollection is most sold in excess of 2K.

Nice rifle.

2k. I've never even seen one. A new super grade, if that's what you wanna call them, are 1800. That rifle in a Joc stock would be the ultimate blued/wood gun

With a detachable mag to boot? Hens teeth boys....

Won’t fit because of the dbm and action length.

Right right. To be more clear, stock made in the Joc style to accommodate the SA.

I also have an original spare magazine.

i would say 1800 in the used condition you have and sell the magazine by its self

It’s the only iteration of 284 they ever made.

For sure. I'll almost bet that's the rarest chambering of any model 70, possibly. If like to have a 6.5 rem mag in a bdl.

What's your price

Haven't decided yet. Had this for a long time and kind of hard to let loose of a M70 this rare. I'll get there!

I remember the local GS having one and selling it when they first came out. I am sure it is still in the area and I would LOVE to know where it is today. I held it in my grubby paws but just didn't have the money at the time. If I had only known.

Thanks to everyone for your opinions and comments. I'll get this listed for sale in the next couple of days.

Who knows what it would bring in an auction setting?
