Swampokie, what's your plan with this rifle? If it was mine I'd shoot and tune on it till I was satisfied and then wear the barrel out. Deja vue, nostalgia whatever but you just can't get a new rifle with the quality of that these days without spending a pile. It's greatest value is in knowing it is second to none in use. Lucky you.
