Yes Grant - the idea of a subsonic (and thus very quiet) .30 cal appeals here too - sorry but I just had to take a pop tongueout

And don't forget they are cheap to load with cast boolits for indoor 25m fun, 3.4gr of N310 and a 115gr boolit is very accurate and a nice round to shoot

Latest news I have from the current importer is they are not currently being built by the factory, they *may* come into the UK next year and list would be in the range of GBP550-600

Might not be that much, it's reckoned around $400 over here.

I would bring these in myself if I had my RFD and OIL already.. I have an export company I already use who can ship firearms. £550-£600 is a bit steep, even with the export and import costs. £500 is much more reasonable, with a reasonable profit for whoever brings them in...

Savage were looking at something similar and apparently they have now scrapped the idea, I do wonder if this is the reason for the Ruger being difficult to source even in the USofA
