Need appraisel of TC Contender barrels

JerryW
I would appreciate getting an idea of the value of the following barrels and related. They are all in excellent, like new condition with no more than 50 rounds through any of them. The barrels are from the 70's and 80's.

1. 10" 22 Long Rifle barrel with 3x TC Lobo rail mount scope.

2. 10" 357 Herrett tapered bull barrel with Weaver mount and rings and a Bausch and Lomb Elite 3000 2x scope. Also includes TC 357 Herrett reloading dies.

3, 10" 7mm TCU barrel with TSOB scope mount and three rings. TC 3RP scope. Also with RCBS reloading dies.

4. 10" 44mag Hot Shot barrel with Burris mount and rings and a Leupold M8 2x scope. Also RCBS reloading dies. Includes the original barrel choke and wrench, as well as the original vent rib and mounting hardware.

Any thoughts on the value of each line item would be appreciated. Thanks.

    #1 around $300; $350 +/- for each of the others. Might do a little better if you sold the items separately.

    Don't want to burst your bubble, but around nM, the 1st barrel would likely go for around $220 unless it is an aftermarket like Bulberry. The 2nd barrel would likely fetch $400 or more, depending on whether the buyer wants a 2X scope or not. 3rd barrel could go as high as $350, and the Hot Shot would probably net you about $300-350 depending on the scope's condition.
    Most 10" barrels were intended to be used for silhouette shooting, so as to be legal under IHMSA rules. I've seen many of each at the Volcano Ramslammers' Matches.

    JerryW,

    I'm pretty much in alignment with gunnut. But a little lower.

    #1 runs 180 new. The 3x is another 150 new. Scopes lose about 1/2 value normally and mounts always seem to get thrown in on the deal. So, $125 + $75 =200

    #2-3-4 Same deal only those calibers bring $200-225 depending on how many are out there at a time for sale. So $300-ish each.

    They are good calibers and a lot of fun to work with. If you get more good deal. That is just what I see though. The market seems to be taking strange turns here lately. High dollar stuff on sale. AR's so few you're lucky to see 4-5 where you used to see twenty or thirty. TC's wouldn't seem like they would change that much but maybe folks are saving for the AR they might not get if they wait.
