Not here yet.
The deal was made while the Howa guys were at company meetings. None of them returned to work until after the 4th.
They'll be here soon...and I'll post info soon. It's been several hours, anything new? I'm older than I was this morning. Other than that, nothing new:) It's 7:35 a.m. EDT. Surely you have an update now.

Bad storms went through. Power is out, but the backup generators are now running. Phones are out though.
No updates. I assure you I'll post something as soon as I have info.

it's been 39 minutes, surely things have changed drastically. we need updates by the minute.
and can you change the twist on the 243? just compress the barrel's ends and push until it's an 8 twist.
ok, NOW any updates? lol

Things have changed drastically. I'm pissed to say the least. I copied and pasted text from my email below (they misspelled "actual", I didn't). Xxxxx, The only ACTAUL Discontinued – True Stainless in the building is …….. HWB21212+ 22-250 std 22” barrel 56 HWR61212+ - built ready to go $ HWB22412+ 25-06 std 22” barrel 75 HWR62412+ - built ready to go $ HWB22612+ 270 std 22” barrel 11 HWR62612+ - built ready to go $ HWB23312+ 375 Ruger 24” barrel 32 Not even offered on the list ? Everything else on the Whittaker order is CERAKOTE / STAINLESS Xxxx XxXxxxxxxx President Legacy Sports International, Inc. 4674 Aircenter Circle Reno, NV. 89502 775 828 xxxx xt xx 775 828 xxxx fax 1-800-553-xxxx www.legacysports.com xxxxxxxxxx  legacysports.com I knew something was wrong when the inventory update was delayed. No way I'm putting big money into inventory on cerakote guns. Once I received the email, I countered with with a different price. They'll have to be cheap enough for me to execute the deal now. The four cartridges listed won't move fast enough to justify the investment. If they accept my new offer, they'll be cheap enough for builds for sure! Thoughts on the chamberings above? I'll back away if you're not interested.

I'm in it for a .223 and a 7mm-08, so the cartridges listed hold no joy for me.

Funny thing is, there were no 375's on the initial list. I even inquired for a member here. Then they sent me the initial list again. They already have the rifles from the initial list on my PO, but told me to wait until everything was verified.
Egg on my face, egg on their face. I'm really pissed.

I would definitely be interested in a 375 Ruger and possibly a 270 Winchester. If Legacy accepts your counter-offer, would these come in under the initial $369.99?
Are the 375 Ruger's complete rifles? Had heard these may be barreled actions they still had on-hand once they decided to drop this chambering from the line-up.
I'm becoming more tolerant of intolerant people.

I would still be interested in a 25-06 or 270, especially if there were less than $369.99. Was looking at those two to begin with.

Geez Darrik, what a bummer! I think that the President of Legacy should be castrated for offering those gay-azzed chamberings. Just replied to your PM and had high hopes of a SS Swede. If it had problems with accuracy, I was gonna rebarrel/build on that stainless action. I might be forced to now accept a .270. Feel like a cheap date left on the side of the road. Thanks Legacy! Keep us posted, thanks! Bill PS. They make the 6.5 Creedmoor in Cerakote, I'd be interested in that, or the blued heavy barreled varmint in 6.5 Creedmoor.

Might want the 25-06 at sub-$369 pricing. Sucks that the 308's are off the list 'now'.
If they'll take your new offer, I might pop for two.

I can't imagine why they did the 25-06 in a 22" barrel. Is that right???

I was set on getting a .223 and a 6.5x55. May reconsider if prices are below $369. Could possibly go .22-250 and .25-06.

Darrik, I was hoping to score a 243 HB for a new LR Precision & 'yote shooter, that at some time could be rebored to 260 or 7-08 is/was my main interest.
FWIW Started to make a reservation for a LR class, where a buddy does one on ones out to 800 yards in one day with a 90% success rate, based on getting this gun with time to get up to speed for the Class early next spring.
Mebbe could take something else in Ceracoat umm in 7-08/7Rmg or 308 for a beater & 6.5x55 to go with my do all 260 T3...Already have a new 270 blue Venture I bought for a beater at $100 net under the Howa SS deal that could go away for a SS 270 ...but had 270's for 40+ years and really past time for some new experiences to conquer .... nothing else really trips my trigger out that super short list at that price.
However, I could do all Cerecoat's if the price was more bettah...just glad I haven't sold some stuff to cover the CC Bill I'd expected to pay you. Oh Well Story of my Life "If it's too good to be True" yaddayadda.
Keep digging and keep me posted. Have a Blessed Day it ain't over until it's over.

I could be interested in the .22-250 depending on pricing.
