I always regret trading a gun for a while. However I now enjoy the ones I traded for. I always had to trade to try new guns for lack of cash flow. Up here a Ruger No1 sells for 600-650. No single shot is worth that money to me. I used to buy them for half that. Where the 700 has gone up 25-30 percent, the No.1 has doubled. My NEFs with the loads they like will shoot right alongside my No.1's. Thats the thing that makes me fell that they are overpriced. I had several and gave them a good ringing out and moved on. Now and then a good buy comes my way on these overpriced guns, then I might pick one up. Until then if I have a caliber that I like and it does the job thats all that matters to me. Except for girl, pretty don't do it for me.
