OK, here's the thing. The first hunting rifle I ever bought(...well, actually my Grandparents bought it for me now that I think of it) was a Remington 742 in 30/06. The guy I bought it from was an early hunting buddy of mine, Alphy; probably 40 years my senior and taught me a lot about hunting. He passed away a few years ago. I also shot my first deer w/ this gun.

So that's about it regarding sentimentality; first "big" gun, Grandparents bought it for me, it belonged to a good friend/mentor b/f me and I shot my first whitetail w/ it.

BUT the stupid thing jams on me making it unpredictable in the field so I don't bother taking it out anymore. It's not the most accurate gun either.

I could keep it as a wallhanger (actually, here in Canada, it would be locked up in my safe [:'(] ) or I could sell it and put the money towards something more useful. My Gramma already told me to "sell the damn thing" if I can't use it and I'm sure Alphy would say the same but it still has sentimental value.

I would just like some objective opinions. Either tell me what you think I should do or what YOU would do! Thanks
