I really like the looks of the half-mag rifles. That's a nice set-up, looks and caliber-wise, you've gotten there.
Do take it hunting, do yourself the favor and see just how effective the old levers and the cartridges they are chambered in are.
I also like my modern McMillan stocked, Pac-nor barreled, Leupold scoped rifles, but I'll hunt with one of my levers in a New York minute.
