TennJed, it's obvious if you ask a question on this forum you will get a wide range of answers and we probably won't make up your mind for you. There is a lot of prejudice by name, model, and caliber. My bottom line answer is go with your heart, keep the box, try it, and if you don't like it sell it. If you have to sell it at a loss so be it, that's the cost of learning for yourself..........you can't have mine.
