Don't have a bolt action, but looking at savage offerings made me start thinking about one. Now this from Ruger, I'm really thinking about one.

Yeah, I don't know why they went with that twist, but doesn't seem to affect accuracy. I know it's only a 5 groove, but I would like to see the actual rifling. I have 2 Black Hole Weaponry barrels in 450B, and those are 1:18 twist, but they have 3 very small grooves. In theory, they shouldn't raise pressure too much compared to the standard 6 groove Enfield rifling that is the most common in this cartridge. We shall see I guess.

Emailed Ruger about availability of this one...they said it is currently being produced and shipped to distributors, so may be out for sale very soon. MUST....HAVE....PRETTY....BOOM-STICK....!!!!

Note: If/when Centerfire Systems gets this in stock, they're going to be selling them for $497.99....SOLD!

Oh, this is a bad, bad thing. I had decided to avoid the 16” barrel, as dearly as I love my other American Rifles, because i heard horror stories about muzzle wash and noise... Like, “Well, there’s $500 I can’t afford and now don’t have to spend...” But now, all those feeble excuses are null and void!

Why?!? Why would anyone post this information where weak-willed immature people can see it?
