I'm not one of the experts here so I won't argue the sleeving issue. I do know value is reduced, and I know I don't fear shooting sleeved barrels.

That said, the only way I'll ever own an H&H or Purdey is to find a sleever I can afford. Anybody has one for sale, feel free to share the details with me...Geo

P.S.: I did own a Boss gun once that I considered sleeving, but the cognoscenti here convinced me it would make a better tomato stake.
