Carol said they wouldn't tap and drill other than for their Leupold 2.5X (not at all what I want). They must have bought a bunch of the scopes??? For Ohio (and most of the shotgun Midwest IMHO) I would want a 1 - 3 or 4X variable with a bigger objective lens.
I agree I would have preferred the gun be regulated for a specific load, which I would have bought several cases of.
I have wanted a rifled side by side slug gun for years, so no looking back. Don't really know why, I'm primarily a bowhunter and have, for the last 12 years, either bowhunted or not gone out during gun season.
As far as worth, I don't plan to sell it, so that's relative to the buyer. "Worth" will be my kids' problem one day, not mine...
