Lifetime warranty and excellent customer service don't mean a thing when your gun fails during a zombie attack.

I have not heard any prices.  I read about a test on another site and the guy was getting 2 inch groups at 700 yards.  http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=459350  That is amazing, I am betting it is going to be one fine rifle.  The .338 Lapua caliber will be awesome to I bet.

Very interesting sounding rifle - that wood stocked Thompson in the picture looks very pretty as well.

2 inch groups at 700 sounds really good, but aren't some of you getting that or better from your rifles? The price range has been suggest to be +/- 2800. At that cost level I would expect such groups. I suppose for a tatical set up it would be considered exceptional, but the build I am waiting on is suppose to top that, only it won't hold 10 rounds. I'm not saying it's not a great shooter but for that kinda money there are many options and choices out there. I will have that much or maybe more in mine but it will include the scope. And it will cost close to what I have in the rifle possibly more.

Take care of Soldiers, Show em how its done and do it with em, Run to the Fight & and hold your ground! I die my men go home! If you're a NCO and this ain't you. GET OUT! GOD BLESS AMERICA!

I think that is exceptional accuracy for a semi/factory rifle.  I think anyone that could do that multiple times in the wind must also be a heck of a shooter.  That is nearly 1/4 MOA, that is great accuracy.  $2800 sounds about right to me considering what it is offering. (I can only hope it is less, fingers crossed)  Jerrod Joplin of Patriot Arms charges nearly $4000 for a very similar rifle.  http://www.patriotarmsinc.com/c-10-revelation-tactical-rifle.aspx  He is probably one of the best in the business. 

Considering what you are getting.  Probably a handlapped match grade barrel, blueprinted action, adjustable stock, built in 20 MOA base.  The Badger type bottom metal and mag are definetly not cheap.  Adjustable trigger, removable large bolt knob.  It has all the goodies I have added to my rifle, and I have spend over $3000 on it.  $2800 is probably a very good price.
