Bought a stainless 77/22 paddle stock new when I turned 18, and I think the rifle and scope I had on there cost me $388 out the door in 1994. That thing could shoot the tacks off paper targets with boring repeatability. Which I guess was one reason my interest wasn't there? It was too easy to shoot well? More of an iron sight and blued rifle guy, and after not shooting it much over the next dozen years I decided to move it along.
Now, some 15 years later, I regret selling. One of the few I wish I had back.
