It's easily worth that to a collector wanting to fill a slot. For a shooter it's too high. When I see one (which is not often) without the box and wearing Pachmayrs they are between $650-$750. You sure don't see many though. Except for the over-priced stuff on gunbroker. I searched completed auctions and there was not a single auction that actually sold.
A LNIB 657 with the (plastic) box sold for $840. http://www.gunbroker.com/item/720304451
This is not a popular cartridge. I'm surprised Ruger still makes them. I have a 657 and love it but if I didn't reload I wouldn't own one. The only reason I traded for the one I have is it came with dies and 300 pieces of brass.
