Default Re: Rugers new 357 Bolt action Carbine

Don't really see a reason for it, myself. 357 is great in a rifle-length barrel, but anything you can do in a five-round bolt gun, you can do twice as good in a 10-round lever gun.

Now, that same rifle, in 7.62 x 39 would probably be pretty neat.

Did you notice the auction, at the bottom of the page. Gonna auction off some "rare items". That means they found some stuff in the back room, and decided to make some money off it.

Brand New Speed Six. Well, that'd be kinda cool to have. Rather have a stainless one than a blue one, but it would be cool. "No Reserve". Starting price of 300 sounds like it has a reserve of 300. Then the neat little comment, at the end. "Buyer is responsible for excise tax". So if you get it for 350 bucks, it's actually $388.50.

Oh well. Woulda been cool.
