I have some new info for those following what Forbes Rifle is doing up in Maine. The 24B is being made now for the 6.5x55,.280Rem and 35 Whelen. That is in addition to the .270Win, 30-06 and the 25-06.
Stainless barrels are coming in and will be available shortly for all calibers. Stainless actions probably available in 2014.
Short actions, the 20B, are being designed for the .243, .308 and 7mm-08.
Four new paint colors will be offered. An OD camo, a hunter green, earth brown and coyote brown. The black/gray granite is still available.
In the future (2014/2015) will be 3 magnum calibers with a new action.
As always, everything will be available in left handed models.
So, that is your unofficial news from the people at Forbes Rifles.
