I recall one selling on a big gun auction site in the last month at a bit over 2500. Of course, that is plus tax, fees, etc. nowadays. I remember being aghast at the price point as I had one twenty or so years ago. It was accurate for an out of the box big bore. One received a full measure of fun when pulling the trigger as I recall. I fired from a standing position primarily. That was the only rifle (scope) that ever cut me above the eye. I had scoped it with low power glass and used the rifle for stalking thickets and heavy woods for the local whitetail deer. I spotted one in an open area while I was still in a thick stand of saplings. The only shot available was a semi-side laying/prone position that allowed a clear shot about a foot above the forest litter. This position only allowed a small portion of the butt to engage the shoulder. Lets just say it was not one of those shots that you could see the effects of through the glass. Fortunately, no tracking was required.
Those are fun rifles; I am just amazed at the price point now. I think I gave 800ish new back then. Good times.
Good luck in your search.
