760 Gamemaster
Hi all,
I am looking to purchase a used Rem. 760 Gamemaster, it has some light rust on the receiver
and possibly the barrel. The numbers/letters on the left side of the barrel are 0 or a D followed by
a DB 44. Serial # 259xxx. I was wondering on a value if nothing else is wrong.
Thanks, Bill
Also what would be best to clean up the light rust on receiver and barrel

This really depends on where you are and what it shoots.. And what platform is selling it.
Online auctions have been going very high lately.
Used rack in central Ohio? I got one for $325 not long ago. Same rifle went for $1,100 on an online auction not long after.
The .300 savages (my favorite in the 760) have been going high lately.

I hadI one a long time ago. It was a carbine in 308. It would bring top dollar today. Like Jake said, it depends on configuration, chambering and condition. They are a popular rife here in PA with the 30-06 the most common as is the 308 and 243. Average price is now $400-$500 I believe. They are really pretty accurate but also a bit on the heavy side.
I'd bet that rust you're talking about can be removed with some oil on some 00 steel wool.

Worthless information about the past auction that I mentioned earlier.
Four were 30-06's and one was chambered in .300 Savage/
All rifles were topped with 3x9 scopes, two had cracked stocks and one sold sold for twice price of some of the others.
300 Savage, Simmons, good shape, $420
30-06, Bushnell, crack in stock, $430
30-06, Bushnell, missing magazine, crack in stock, $491
30-06, Redfield, good shape, $575
30-06, Nikon, good shape, $850. Two guys really wanted this one.
