Refurbs are $299 from Canon right now. I use it on my 6D. What I really like is how flare resistant it is.

That is incredibly cheap for an L lens. Maligned as it may be (not by me, though!) for the R7 it is terrific. All the corners are chopped off, so forget the corner softness issue. Center, and the rest of the image is great. The L lens optics are leaps and bounds over the 18-55 or any other similar alternative. The colors have that L lens "pop." For $300, it's a steal.
