Guess I'm going to throw you a real challenge here Ripp......Keep the old girl as is or rebarrell?
This will certainly be different from your new fangdagled super high velocity jobs that you love so much!
Good to have the 'right' tool for the job.

Plan to keep her as is.. will check the accuracy and see what loads she does or does not like.. will not change anything ..

I hunted with strictly open sights shooting whitetails back on the farm..want to recreate that as best I can..and hopefully teach my kids some of that along the way ..what I consider true core hunting.. open sights..standing or running game.... If I reach my dirt nap having taught my kids that skill, I will be in happy bug breeding grounds..

Yes your 'billy lids' may take a while to grow into this one to actually use, but hey it'll stay all original - bloody hard to beat that!
Can always buy one of the new '86's & do that one up!
