I've got to wonder if some of you guys have actually priced old guns. A 270 or 30-06 are easier to sell quickly as working guns, but hold much less of their value.
Price a few pre-64 Winchester's in 30-06 vs the same gun in 257 Roberts or any of the less common calibers. A 257 Roberts or 220 Swift will easily bring 2 or 3 times as much as a 270 or 30-06. This is simply because they made so many more of them.
