I see where a new Fred Eichler edition gun is coming soon . From what little info there is. It looks very  promising. Any specs out yet? Our availability dates?

At the risk of sounding uneducated. I associate predator hunting with long range shots. Since when is a 16" barrel considered the perfect length for a predator hunting specific rifle?

Me...
Fred's "Predator Nation" highlights all sorts of hunting, but a lot of it is Fred taking coyotes and other small to mid-sized game at short and intermediate distances.  He also takes bigger game and game of all sorts at longer distances.
The rifle in question was designed in conjunction with Fred and features a 16" barrel, proprietary brake, proprietary handguard, and several other unique sfeaturs that will set it off from other RRA builds.
More to come as we get closer to release.  It is also set to be in the 2012 RRA catalog.
