I know, I know.........but I really have no idea This is a Hill Country Sheep rifle that was built on a Remington action, has a fluted bolt, trigger tech trigger, edge stock. I just got the rifle back from pac-nor where they installed a stainless super match 8twist barrel that was chambered in 257 wby. The action has a black teflon coating and I had pac-nor cerakote the new barrel in titanium. What is this gun worth......I have not fired it since it has returned from having the new barrel put on. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/jwQDJpK2/IMG-1283.jpg)

1000.00. You can never get what you have in a custom rifle.

I honestly cannot even estimate what that is worth, best way to find out is put it on Gubroker and start it at what you feel you want for it.

Double D- I sold my .257 WBY on Gunbroker last year (700 action, Bansner stock, SS Broughton Barrel, Timney trigger and coated action) for $1700. I'd suspect yours to be in that neighborhood but perhaps a bit more - especially with the growing number of Hammer bullet super-fans out there that'll wet themselves over the 1:8 twist.

Agree, you can never recover the cost when selling anything custom.

I agree that you won’t break even or recoup the money, however I believe that you could get more than $1,000, probably about twice that. Give or take.
Best of luck!

Double D: Tried to send you a PM but it would not go through. Perhaps send me a PM and see if that works.

I’d say depending on the overall weight you could go from $1500-$2200. The lighter the more dough.

Hammer’s suck! But it would sure launch a Berger 133gr or 135gr nicely with that 8 twist.

If Hill Country were selling it they would be asking $6k no problem.....since it's their "sheep rifle" the weight should be a selling point.
