Hi all, I am considering letting my Classic in 270 Weatherby mag go, but not sure what they are going for. It is in excellent shape, CRF from 1996. I bought it from the original owner several years ago and it has been a safe queen it's whole life. I have looked on Gunbroker and can't find any completed sales and respect the opinions on this site. Looking for a starting point on what to ask for it. Thanks, MH

Great looking rifle and a cool one in 270 Wby,
I’d surmise somewhere in the 800-1200 mark depending on the audience.

This was a PF which sold earlier this month: https://www.gunbroker.com/item/977460855I’d guess north of that if you went the GB route.

Hi all, I am considering letting my Classic in 270 Weatherby mag go, but not sure what they are going for. It is in excellent shape, CRF from 1996. I bought it from the original owner several years ago and it has been a safe queen it's whole life. I have looked on Gunbroker and can't find any completed sales and respect the opinions on this site. Looking for a starting point on what to ask for it. Thanks, MH Sweet rifle. I'm assuming you are going to sell without the scope? That's a $1,200.00 rifle most days. You can possibly get $200 out of the old gloss Redfield scope. The mounts and rings another $30.00. That rifle and scope combo would look so much better with a set of DD's. Now, you are saying, well if I add everything up, I could sell the whole package for $1,400.00+. Not likely, as the scope does not add much value to the rifle. Also, you have to be selective about where you list it. List it here and you will likely sit on it for a while at $1,200.00. List it on GB, and it may sell for $1,400.00. It totally depends on the market, and who's looking at that exact moment in time. Pretty sweet rifle in a more rare configuration and likely a 6 digit classic, which makes it one of the more desirable classics. Good luck with what ever route you take, if you decide to sell it.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

That and the 7mm Remington Mag are my favorite cartridges. It would be very hard to pass up for me.

.270 wby is the best of Roy's cartridges in my opinion. And on a model 70 with CRF? Don't get much better than that. Like BSA said, it's worth 12-1400 easy.
