Sounds about right to me. I bought a 94 XTR in 375 in really nice shape from a member here last year in that range and felt like that was a pretty fair shake.

It's great shooter with .378 245gr cast and 200gr Shock Hammers. I haven't messed with any other bullets in it yet. I'll probably try some of the 200gr Sierras if I ever happen across some. I actually just finished zeroing in the sights on that thing with a cast load for deer season yesterday afternoon.

Sounds awesome ZCM. I need to dust mine off as well. I still have a few boxes of factory ammo, but don't want to shoot it because the damn stuff is so expensive now. I also load for mine, but have not gotten into the cast bullet game. Fun rifles to shoot for sure.

It was a bit nasty to shoot when I first got it. I ended up putting one of the thin decelerator pads on it. That factory plate just bit the hell out of me, even with milder loads. I changed out the sights, too. My depth perception has gone to crap, so a fiber front is pretty much a must for me if I'm not using a peep.

It's a nice shooter. I can touch all my shots at 50yds on a day I'm not shaking too bad. Even on a bad day it's a 1.5" group at that range; plenty good enough for the spot I'll be hunting this fall. A long shot in there is maybe 70 yards.

I definitely wouldn't be shooting it much if I was paying for factory loads. Those Lightning cast are pretty reasonable, about $18/100. The Hammers are damn expensive, but I always like to work up a mono load for new rifles, just in the event I may need it somewhere/sometime in the future.

Damn, that is pretty good. I wish mine shot like that!! I think I shoot mine more offhand than any other rifle I own. It is a little punishing off the bench.

My offhand shooting is absolutely abysmal. Neurological damage when I was 18, so I have tremors, especially in my hands. Some days are worse than others.

50yds off the bench on a less shaky day. 10.5gr Unique, CCI200 with the 245 Lightning.

Just saw my first 375 Marlin in the wild at a gun show yesterday. Exterior was 8+ condition, didnt check the bore once I saw the $2500 sale tag on it. Cool to see the 'holy grail' of the Marlin clan, but not for me at that price. Id rather a 444.

Very nice shooting. I need to pull my 375 out and try some different loads.

That is pretty expensive. I was eyeballing some 444's yesterday.

I was looking at a new in the box unfired Big Bore the other day they wanted $1250 for it? Is that the going rate more or less?..mb

Thought I'd post this here in this older .375 Win. Post.

I noticed a Winchester 94 AE XTR .375 Win. Caliber at Auction on Gunrunner Auction site. Lot #49. Looks Almost NIB! Great condition, with minor handling marks, from the pics.
Currently, @ $720.00. Ends in 9 days!


I have no horse in this race, just an FYI!

I have one nice shooters they go for about 1000 to 1200 the components are not that hard to fine..mine is the marlin.

Thanks for posting, I've been looking for one.

I'm glad to hear that!

Good Luck, I hope you get it at the price you're looking for!

Go to Gunbroker. Look under "Advanced" at the far-right side of the top bar. Use it to look up "Closed" auctions and you will see what sold and what didn't.
FWIW, it seems that these odd-ball calibers run hot and cold. I think a few guys buy them and it encourages others to post their guns. Don't be in a rush. The ammo has to be reloaded so bear that in mind as the dies and components will add to the price.
I understand your efforts as I have started looking for a Marlin 336ER (356 Win).

there is a marlin 336er on there now in 356 going for big money

True, the gun looks like new, but even with one box of ammo, the price is crazy. But sometimes collectors will pay it for a specific gun, in like new condition.
Like new is of no value to me. I shoot them and take them hunting.
On 375 Win vs 356 Win, it seems the 375 rifles are a better value.

Yes .375 is a better value but im like you not paying over 2k for something im hunting with

I paid $1200 IIRC a few years back for a 94BB .375. I took into account that I'd have to beat $1050 or so after shipping and transfer fees to get one to Alaska. I've probably used more Ballistol wipes on it than I've put rounds through it but I'll be fixing that shortly.
