Nope, didn't buy another Venture...    But I did pick up a couple of really nice rifles.  It's been years since I've even had a long gun in the house, and I used to have a bunch.  Bought a Whitworth Mark X 375 H&H with scope, and a Remington 788 30/30 with scope.  Both went for 25% of used retail value.  When the bidding stayed that low I couldn't help myself.  They were about 10 rifles in the auction and some went for double what you could have bought them for on the street.  Go figure...  I also picked up a couple of Burris Scopes for $50 bucks per.  Another good buy.  I'm a happy camper!!
