I have the info that the .303 British has been made in an RSI configuration- in addition to the 1A configuration already discussed here.
Anyone else pick up on that?

I love RSI's. I think the 6.5 X 55 in an RSI would be a sweet little rifle.
I am always looking for factory wood stocks!

Anyone else pick up on that? ENU, I could have gone all day and not read this thread.  You did NOT have to post this.... Now everyone and his brother will be wanting an RSI in every cal from .22 LR to 9.3x62... Oh God! Spare me...!

Oh, an RSI in .303 and 9.3x62 or x74R, would do nicely, thank you. Maybe a "little brother" in 5.6x52R...

GH, ,
Sorry; however, it is not likely that many will see the .303 RSI. I understand it was made in very limited numbers, like less than 20. Also, sad to say, I don't think any were exported, so our Australian and Canadian friends will not be able to get one!!

ENU, I don't know whether to thank you or curse you.  On one hand I am most attracted to the limited editions.... However this is one that I don't think I'm going to get hold of... Aaaahhh sooooo!

I have seen 1 number 1RSI in 303 british that my local Ruger rep. had shipped into us. According to him there were only about 4 made by accident. On a different note they are making them in a 1A.

Jason Intriguing. I think if I worked in the Ruger factory, there'd be a lot of interesting "accidents." - Tom

Got word today from pretty good authority that there were 19 produced for some employees with potentially a few more that did get shipped (perhaps as unwanted ones by the employees?) I'd grab one if you see one!
