Its a pretty good review on the rifle. Says that Remington makes between 250-500 a year. Didn't read anything about one in 300wm though...
Hope this helps

thanks fordtrucking. that is a good review and thats the place i ended up getting mine. went with the deployment package and a 8x25 mark4 scope. with the dollar the way it is i saved big on the upgrades dont know how i did on the rifle because i couldnt find one around here

Was it difficult to get it out of the US?

I owned one on 308win for a short while.It was a good rifle,but no better than most other 308win heavy barreled rifles in the same price range.In 308win,they aren't at all hard to find.

There's a used one for sale at Marksman's in Lethbridge.
