Hummm!! Though not in any hurry to run out and get one,
interesting anyway.

I didn't know they were still making that rifle. I remember when it came out a few years ago, but can't remember about the reviews. Might be hard to reload for unless you could get the E-primers.

Well, you won't have trouble finding those primers anyway. They're in-stock everywhere and well over $100 per thousand.

Oh, about the same price as regular primers but you can actually find them .

I'm a bit surprised they're still making them too. I recall reading an article in Rifle when they came out. I wasn't impressed with it then and there's certainly no way I'd have one now. Especially considering the cost of the primers.

Powder Valley lists them as in stock at $154.00/1000......just about the only thing available too. At .154 cents apiece plus hazmat you can see where the shooting sports are headed.....Looks like the intent is to make shooting so expensive nobody can affort to shoot. New shooters have a lot of hurtles to jump......afish4570

A++ Agree with you on that.

Does anyone remember the case-less rounds that were being experimented with in the late 80's early 90's. What ever became of that idea?
