Well, ended up getting rid of the rifle pretty quickly for $400. I toyed around with keeping it, but had absolutely no need for another deer rifle...and it wasn't anything I planned on taking to the range to just "shoot". Plus, it would have involved buying brass, dies, etc, and then working up a load on a gun that would likely never get below 1.5"....and I didn't want to risk dinging one of the nicest 742s I've ever seen.
Good news is, I found a semi-local guy who has been after one for quite some time. He grew up hunting with one in the 80's and has been after one for years, so at least it is going to a good home!
