Can't agree with you there Grouse. Feel translates to whether or not that MLer will fit you and if it doesn't fit then you aren't going to be able to shoot it worth a tinkers darn. Looks, well that's something of a "to each his own" there. If I don't like the "looks" of something I aint buying it usually. But that's just me. I aint saying it has to be a beauty queen or nothing but if it's just butt ugly I don't want it. Kind of like that TC Strike (formally known as LHR something or other). That thing is just butt ugly to me even though it could quite possibly be the best thing on the block.
