Valmet 412 9.3x74R

Hi guys
I've got a Valmet 412 9.3x74R double rifle in Excellent shape Stock set has been slimmed and refinished to remove weight. Rifle weighs 8# 4oz with A vari-X II Leupold on it. Shoots 1.5 inches with my 325gr Norma Oryx loads at 100yrds
I'm not set up yet to take pictures and try to post them.
I am looking to sell this what is a fair price?
I have a single shot (same caliber) and will be ordering a Saice SXS(same caliber) after I sell some guns. Would a trade for a tricked out Marlin 1895 45-70 be fair?
This is an expensive strange hobby but I love it!!!!!
Thanks

the 9.3x74r DR is rather rare. The scope mount is running $150-$250 plus the scope.
The 9.3x74r is a great DR option. I have one...
I you decide to sell it GBO has a classified section to post the gun for sale.

Hey Doug,
Is it actually rare, or are guys just holding onto them???
Back in the day, i sold quite a few of them.

Hey DM,
back in the day you where a 9.3x74R officinado, and understood the value of the 9.3x74r round. I cant imagine many people in CONUS had the same appreciation. My hypothesis is that you generated most of the 9.3x74r sales for Valmet.
However I am amending my statement to "The 9.3x74r is hard to come by"

Interesting conversation guys "Rare" versus " no the guys that have them are holding on to them"
As the now generation would phrase it " Same Difference"

I guess my definition of "rare", would be, not very many were made, and i think plenty were made and are still being made. (as 512's) But, i see your point, of "not that many around" too... lol
