There's a distance where it's no longer fair chase; therefore it's not hunting and just becomes target practice on an animal.

The OP said his shots would be 100 yards or less, so he'd be giving up accuracy.

So, my point was that gunbroker is a good source to see what people are willing to pay. Let's not overthink this.

I once heard of a guy that went into a coin store to get some quick cash. The owner made him an offer. When the guy asked him why his offer was so much lower than the book value, the owner replied, "because books don't buy coins; people do."

That's all I got.

Ruger frequently changed rifling twists in them. This and the pencil thin barrels did not make them necessarily inaccurate rifles. They just had to be fed ammo that liked the twist ratio, but at the same time were able to reproduce the same harmonics shot after shot, which can be more challenging with a long thin barrel. Using the same ammo before and after, I've seen quite a few decrease group sizes significantly, just by adding a muzzle device. The reason is that the muzzle brake or flash hider adds weight to the end of the barrel and changes the harmonics. Simply put, certain rifles like certain ammo, and the thinner the barrel, the more picky they can be to an extent, but it can be overcome.
