I live in northeast MS, about 10 miles north of Tupelo if it's even that far. I killed it kind of in my back yard. I say "kind of" because it's just a bunch of brushy land we own between where we stop mowing and where the trees begin.
If I remember correctly I paid $275 for that gun brand new at a private store. Like an idiot I didn't shop around so I don't know how that compares. I fell in love with it on sight, asked to look at it, and then went home with it.
