I think that almost twice what its worth used, now that H&R is making them available (as .357 Mags) again at least on a limited run basis. Get them while you can!!!. I also think it's high because just about a week ago there was a highly desireable, like new, and long out of production 7x57 Mauser Ultra barrel on E-bay that went for $140.00!!! less than the starting bid on that .357 Max barrel!!, I already have a 7x57 Handi barrel but I was sorely tempted to bid on that one, in the end both finances and the thought that I have one, let someone else get it, won out and I did not bid, but THAT was a barrel to get....<><.... :grin:
