I'm not surprised at how well this one sold.

the auction but don’t anticipate it to end less than $350. Auction ended at $415.00, much higher than I anticipated.

Seems pretty high but there seems to be a strong attraction for LH rifles with plastic mags...:)

Had my RH 581 w/ mahogany or walnut stock out today with a couple of other 22's (ULA and 513S). Shot 5 different brand of ammo at 50 yards from a bench rest at 20 degrees. 10 shot groups.
The 581 held its own with the others and probably had the lowest average group size considering all 5 types of ammo! That was with a 4x M8 Leupold, too vs the SS12X on the ULA and Weaver 7X on the 513! Best overall group was the ULA w/ Rem 40g target ammo... 0.5" w/ 1 flier. I was surprised by the 581 as it was nipping on the heels of the ULAs best group.

Got one of the metal mags built and sold by one of our members on the 'fire. They are the real deal!

I bought one a couple years ago off Gunbroker , think I paid around four hundred when all was said & done. It is every bit the equal of my CZ 452 , which is to say a very accurate 22 sporter.
I have seen them go higher on Gunbroker , much higher.

I bought a "lefty" Remington 581 a few years back at my local gun shop for $275.00. I thought I had paid to much ...now I don't. The rifle appeared unfired with just a 1-inch nick in the stock finish. The Rem 581 sat next to a Lefty Remington 788 in 6mm for $350.00. I had no interest in a left-hand Rem 788 in 6mm.
