AKwolverine: I got to picture number 20 before I vomited!
I would relish kicking the bubba, in the nuts, that destroyed that once great Rifle.
I have two absolutely mint, 100% perfect, all original pre-64 Winchester Model 70's in caliber 375 H&H Magnum both in the low 400,000 serial number range.
They are not the Supergrade versions though.
Its gonna be like pulling teeth when I put them up for sale.
Thanks for the warning.
Long live the Riflemans Rifle!

Your messages finally sunk in, he updated the listing.
"After this auction began we started to receive alot of emails and calls about the caliber. We missed the fact that the rifle had been rechambered in 375 WTBY. We apologize for this miss as we would not want to mislead anyone." Well, that is good. At least now, the people that are bidding on it have been informed. If they did not notice the stamp on the underside of the barrel. What I've seen a lot of times, is guys still bid on rifles, regardless of originality. Sometimes it's surprising how much a rifle will actually sell for. Like I said in an earlier post, after he gets his item listing updated, he won't have any problem selling it for $2,600+. I don't know where it will top out at, but I know it will at least sell for that much. It's kind of intriguing to me and I am glad that he finally updated it. I was beginning to wonder about this guys honesty.

Tempting to chase this one as a shooter. Ream it to 375 AI and run 375 H&H, 375 Weatherby, or 375 AI whatever is available.

Thanks AK. Now I can see how much it sells for. I'm glad to see he listened and made it right. I still think it will hit the $2,600 mark. What say you guys??

Any wagers as to how much it's going to sell for?

Thanks AK. Good info. Gives us an idea of what certain mods can do to the price.
