Default Replace Mavic MA40 Rim with... ?

One of my front wheel's bearing has a gouge in one of the races. It's a Mavic MA40 rim, 33 years old, taking a 700 x 25 outer tire. The noise is annoying. My LBS thought re-packing might fix it, and did so. I think I should have known better. The noise is as bad as ever.

Can anyone recommend a replacement rim? I am not all that hip on what is available by way of bike parts these days. I ride my 1986 Vitus a few times a week, just bumping around town to relax.

Thank you.
