GUYS:
I have a Darrell Holland custom rifle, that I need to sell as we are moving to a retirement community. It was built in 1998 and has fired less that 300 rounds. 7mm Rem Mag. New REM LH 7OO action , blueprinted and pillar bedded. Hart match grade SS #4 taper barrel, bead blasted and cryoed. Mc Millian stock and 1" Decelerator pad. Matte Leupold QR bases and rings. Weight is 8 pounds, 6 oz. What is the fair market value for such a rifle. Thanks.
NB

Being LH hurts it.
Best to toss is on GunBroker w/excellent pictures.
Start it at a penny with a reserve as high as you want.
If it sells great, if not ---
Run it twice and see what the highest bid is.
Then relisit it with an edit starting it at 10 bucks below the high bid with no reserve.
Unless someone here makes you an offer, opinions on worth are just like belly buttons.

Thanks for that solid advice, OTB. I'm just used to buying guns, not selling them......

Interesting question. I don’t know what it’s worth, but it’s likely worth quite a bit less than replacement cost. It’s a lefty and custom guns are generally worth more to the owner than others. I have a very similar rifle, only less than 100 rounds fired. It’s a R 700 that’s been blue printed, Shilen SS 26” #4 contour chambered in REM 7 mag, with a McMillan hunter stock. I’m not selling it but believe it’s worth hundreds less than I have in it. Good luck on your sale.

Would Darrell be of any help to you in trying to move it?
There are 2 rules to success:
1. Never tell everything that you know.

What twist and length is the barrel ? What kind of trigger and bottom metal?

Not selling mine, but it’s a right hand, 7 mag, blue printed SS R 700 action, 26” SS shilen #4 contour, and McMillan stock. Has at most 100 rounds through it. Not sure what I have in it as I’ve owned it 15 or so years. Is selling mine, I’d shoot for $1100 or so.
