That is about half what I gave for mine. I love mine. It is fun to shoot and very accurate. The ammo is a little high but if you watch for sales you can get it a little cheaper. Good luck with it and I hope you like it as well as I do mine.

Ammo can be found for ~$4 per box online. Google-fu to the rescue!

Natchez has Remington for $3.59 a box when you buy a brick.

That was a STEAL!  :o  I wish that I could find one locally that was priced like that.
