With just under 11 hours to go this blued .270 isn't running too far behind utah708's stainless .30-06. Current bid is $1,525. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=463584109This afternoon someone put up a LH blued .30-06 Sporter from the first run in the late 90's. It'll be interesting to see what that fetches.

That 30-06 might be mine your talking about. Sorry for the ignorance but how do you know it is from the first run? I will also be putting a left hand kimber of Oregon 84 on gunbroker today that has a factory 24 inch bull barrel which I haven't seen before in a lefty.
I am heading to africa for the first time in a few months, so some toys have to go!

Besides the serial number, the stock is a little different the most noticeable being the thin red buttpad. BTW, good luck with you auction. The high prices these lefty M70s fetch make me feel good about the ones I own. Except for the 7mm Mag

tmitch got it - the first ones had the red butt pad and the stock lines were a little more squared off. Winchester made those from 1996 until sometime around 2000 or 2001, I forget, then they stopped for a few years. Then they introduced the LT with the black pad and a more rounded forend in a right hand version and when they got around to making more left handers, around 2004 or so, they made the lefties in the LT version.
I may be off a year or two on those dates, the only one I remember for sure was 1996 when they were introduced.

Unbelievable! Guess it pays to save the box, an almost identical .270 only brought $1230 in December. I can't believe it brought more than that Stainless '06 that sold last week!

I can't seem to figure it out. I recall someone here picked up a blued 30-06 a few months ago on GB for $900 or so. I suppose timing is everything.

Yep, I called yesterday afternoon as soon as I found it. Gone. This morning I get the e-mail alert from GI of the listing.

That's why Gunbroker is better for determining what the market will bear as far as value. But that can be false as well, if more than one person really want the particular one.

Priced as it should be. According to who? Who the h*ll do you think?!...according to *me*... Anyone who would pay anywhere near that $2000+ selling price needs a drug test and/or a lobotomy.

Would you sell yours for that? I don't own one and don't want one. Not an itch I need to scratch. If I did, I wouldn't spend more that $800 for that rifle. And I wouldn't pay much more for a SS model. I've passed on them in the past and will continue to unless priced accordingly.
