I've had this thing a few months but haven't had much time to shoot it. I loaded up some 125 XTPs with Alliant Power Pistol and it's a blast! I've been shopping around to replace the grips. Hoping to find some black micarta.

With so few selling,, I don't have a clue about current values. But I'd study the newer 8 shot version, seeing what they sell for & add 50%.
 
found a 5.5" and a 7.5"?
Seems the new reissues have hurt the value of the old originals. That's often the case.
On GunBroker NONE of the 5.5 inch models have sold, even with opening bid requested of $1100 or so.
One 7.5 inch did sell without a box for $806

I have a 5.5" on my watch list. Starting bid of $950. Not sure I want it that bad. I bought a 7.5" 45 Colt face to face from AR15.com for $800. Thought that was fair.
 
Many feel the newer 8-shot versions have hurt the values of the older 6-shot ones. Maybe they have to some folks. But to a person who collects, or who wants the most robust, easiest shooting .357 with serious loads will not let go of their 6-shot models easily or cheaply.
 
I've also got the 8 shot version and it shoots heavy loads just fine. That little bit ofless weight from having more holes than the earlier version didn't affect the recoil or the handling at all. Mine cost 600 if I remember correctly about a year ago.

That just makes it good, and bad, for collectors. I've seen it over and over in the recurve bow world. A highly desired old bow has a repop made and the now everyone can get one at a decent price. For those that only want to shoot one, or own one, for the cool factor the new model is just fine. This drops the demand of the old ones. Yes, collectors still want them but don't have to pay as much, and they also cry because the bow they spent $1000 for two years ago now won't push past $550 unless it is pristine and then only to the right collector.
