Probably both. People getting good deals could buy multiples and put them on GB to get some of their money back or just be opportunists trying to take advantage of a new product with high demand.

When I had my FFL, I had to do a lot of volume with my distributors to get a new or popular rifle.  With Ruger, I needed to to buy 3-5 bolt guns to get 1-2 Mini-14s (back in the AWB days).  I marked up the minis and sold the bolt guns for cost just to get rid of them.  Large volume dealers got preference, which kept them as large volume dealers. Wonder how distributing works today?

Says he has 89 in stock and ready to ship when I called him this morning.     It's a little more but if they are only putting out 100 a month, then take that into considerations.

Price gouging. Fuck that. Hope he chokes on them. Wait until the big stores get them. Prices will come down.

That's $200 under MSRP, not sure I'd call that gouging.

In the gun world the neck bearded sister humping front butt back titted basement dwellers buy up all the supply so they can create their own little market. Its getting worse and worse anytime something new comes out.

Not to the same scale but it does happen. Think about the Glock 42 and 43, S&W Shield, etc....all were flipped on Gunbroker and sites for way more than what they retail for because people were keeping them out of stores.

Dealer cost is $850-$875 so I do not mind paying $999 for mine tomorrow (6.5CM) but the dealer was initially looking at $1200, glad he stayed somewhat true to his normal mark up. $1199 is not horrible but I won't pay it.

There's a dealer local to me that's offering to pre-order them @$1199. I want one, but I'm waiting until I can find one in the 1k range.

can you elaborate on your load development.   I am going to to go with 140 grain berger hybrids and H4350.    If the rifle comes in time for this weekend, that's what I'm starting with.   I might work OAL fist with a consistent load.

Mine is a 243.  I do have a .260 that I shot the 140 AMAX in and 43g of H4350 seems to be a sweet spot for a lot of 260s Start lower and work up.

Ideally, I'd like to see the horizontal come out of it, and it looks like it may, around 42.7 or 43 grains... It's just nitpicking, though. That's fantastic for a factory barrel.

That would most likely be over the speed limit for a PRS match, though. Those 105s fly plenty flat at 3110.

I'm going to try to bump it up just a little and find out.  My monthly match isn't sanctioned so I'm only sacrificing barrel life.  This shoots every bit as well as my Bartlien

Anyone want a Remington 700 SPS?
(No, not a 'for sale' ad, just being a smart a**)

The plan was to put the above mentioned barreled action (sitting in the safe, doing nothing) into a Hunter 700.
I'm done waiting on MAGPUL and will now go after a RPR instead, probably in 6.5

Thanks all for the reviews on this new rifle.

85 of them in stock is a little hard to believe.  That would mean one gun store got the lion's share of the first production run, over places like Bud's and KY Gun.

Having been there before I don't doubt it at all.  They buy guns by the pallet and have a HUGE online presence.  Their store is insane and must have $2+ million in the showroom.

I noticed they posted 12 to GB.  I bet those who bid on other sales up to 1399 are thinking they wished they hadn't.

I just bought one of the 6.5's. They had 71 listed in stock when I bought mine. Few minutes later it is at 69. I called and confirmed they actually have them and it sounds legit. Should get tracking info later today.



I can see waiting for the price to come down as thats a big part of what makes this rifle cool. For me I dont mind paying a couple hundred extra to get my hands on it from a legit dealer without playing the gunbroker games. This time next week I'll be shooting it.

Congrats. Post some pics and range report when you can. With just getting my savage 10T, will have to wait awhile before getting one. Dam.

Ordered one.

Could anyone with the 6.5 do me a favor and mic the OD of the barrel right before the muzzle threads? I'm ordering a brake for it and trying to get a good OD match. Thanks.

Should be .75". That what they are all listed and what my 243 is. I put a brake on it that is a little bigger.  Not a big deal.

Thanks.

The company I'm getting the brake from asked for it so I wanted to make sure. They also asked for the length of the threading (tenon?) although they are going with .625".

Eta: did yours come with a rail section for a bipod or sling mounts for the keymod rail?

Came with the rail section and a swivel that can be integrated into.  It also came with a QD adapter.

I asked Ruger if the 20 MOA top rail was removable and they said it was, but they also said they have no plans to make a 0 MOA rail.

TeeRex - Can you confirm the top rail is replaceable?

I've seen a video mentioned that it was replaceable and would be 0 MOA.... but that was pre-release.

It is. I'm sure there will be an after market rail at some point. Are you planning on running a canted mount or just don't want the cant at all?

I can run it either way, but since I'm distance limited and I may swap my optic between rifles, it would be easier to have a 0 MOA.

Just picked up my 6.5CM... very nice. I'd say the trigger is about 2.5 pounds... I have no way to check right now. Can't wait to scope it and try it out. $1075 OTD.

Alright, who else wants to see some 20 shot groups at 100 yards fired in under 1 minute?  This could be a new thing..... Kind of like the MOA all day challenge...

What rings are you using. Brand & height?

Thx!!
Seekins AR heigh. 1.45"  


Thx. I'm assuming you have a 50mm objective on your scope. How much clearance is there between the scope objective and the RPR rail?

Thx +2

That's the 3-18 razor. My 4.5-27 would fit with the 56mm though. There isn't much room but enough. I had aadmount caps so those are a little thunder as well.
