Mine, in 7x64 is a fine shooting rifle.
Shot many a Roe deer in Germany.
Brought is back, and accounted for many more critters here.

That is a realistic price for the 270 in good condition. I'd say the 375 may bring a few hundred more but would be a harder sell just because of the limited market for big game calibers. I have a 25-06 and 243 and love them, especially the 25. I have been thinking about putting the 243 up for sale to fund another project but am having a hard time doing it....LOL

Have been looking for one to use as a long range rifle for a couple of years and have just purchased a 66sm in 8x68s and am currently waiting for the scope, mounts, dies and limbsaver pad to arrive (have to import everything so 2 to 8 week wait), damn they are ugly but shoot. Wish mine had claws as I have a Sauer drilling with claws, shot a couple of ducks when I was after deer yesterday (un-cliped scope and sliped it in my pocket), no luck with the 3 fallow spikers or 1 red doe and large fawn that I saw off in the distance at nightfall.
My mate currently has 3 66s's in 7x64 and all shoot sub moa.
