why keep this rifle?

Multiple guns in the same caliber?

A better idea would be multiple guns in the same model and caliber, as "one is none, and two is one"....... parts break..... there is no guarantee the Brown Truck of Happiness will always be able to bring you a quick fix from Brownell's.

It would be even better to have the same model in pairs, in more than one caliber......

jgcoastie, how did that 7615 shoot? I had a temptation to buy one recently but haven't yet.

Shot fairly well. I seem to remember around 2 MOA. Not bad for a pump rifle with crappy milsurp ammo...

Had to stick with the 20rd mags (I used PMags) though, the 30rd mags got in the way when I was cycling the pump.
 
Well, I tend not to sell them with one exception. If it doesn't fit me and I can't shoot it accurately from different positions, it gets sold to fund the purchase of 1 that does work for me.

The other reason to sell is when the gun case overflows and room has to be made....:D
 
When I said I have some redundant calibers but in different configurations I should have elaborated that all of my bolt rifles are ruger m77 mkii's with the exception of two....one is an m77 hawkeye & the second is a ruger 77/22. What I meant when I said different configurations is, for example, a target barrel 22-250 & a sporter weight 22-250. Not different brands or models.
 
guns are tools, if you have no use for the tool trade it for something you do have a use for. Cash comes to mind, then buy something that you so have a use for.

This is a question I wrestle with on occasion. I have many rifles; some in redundant calibers albeit in different configurations. There are three or four that I have considered sending out the door because I never shoot them. Make no mistake, they are good rifles but they hold zero sentimental value to me. One is a 270 I bought used via gunbroker & have been frustrated at from day one because the seller blatantly misrepresented its condition. I've never even shot it so why keep it? .....

mmd,

Go ahead and shoot it! AND don't sell an real accurate rifle - You'll regret it.
