It varies a ton with condition, grade, sidelock vs. boxlock, era built, etc. Tell us more.

First you are going into a type gun which is relatively scarce. Try looking at http://www.bobjonesguns.com in the drilling section, he usually has a couple for sale. The rifle caliber you cite is an older caliber in the .35 Rem class. Depending upon condition and many many other factors the gun could be worth relatively little to several thousand. As Fred says we have to know much more before being able to help much.

Try The Drilling Hotline on the web and talk to Martinelli.

I just happen to have this picture of one. From the looks of it this gun would shoot a .366 200 gr #2 alloy cast bullet into a 1 1/2" group @ about 1700fps. 16 ga bores of .668 and 65mm chambers. Choked F/F. Made about 1910 and nitro proofed for steel jacketed bullets. I hear that in this condition (which I would consider average) the gun would go for $12-$1500. Of course it's just one picture.

This caliber is not the most desirable in a drilling...despite its appearance, it's good for close range on whitetails and that's about it. It's very close to 38/55 in performance. A better combo is 8x57R or 7x57R. Best is 9.3x74R (approaches 375H&H) but these are hard to find.

Uncle Arthur, welcome to the board. Could I prevail on you not to "shout" (all caps)? Thanks.
