Varies. I like shooters, but after I got a few I started ignoring the "average" rifles and start looking for ones with more condition, or at least ones that are more uncommon. Too many 99's to buy them all (especially if you get a C&R FFL).

Others here aren't interested unless it's a high grade rifle. Yet others just have their one or two that they hunt with.

Different strokes for different folks.
