As a precaution to the inevitable, which is I'll get a gun and within a week or 2 someone posts for sale a more desirable gun... Anyway, if you have, or know where one is, please let me know before I buy a light barreled replacement. It seems Remington didn't make a heavy barrel 221 fireball, from what I can find? Thanks Allen

Mine is normally under an inch at 100. I've shot 100 straight and due to the lower velocity of the cartridge have not suffered from superhot barrel or loss of accuracy that I noticed. I love the cartridge. *See my forum handle! _______________________________________________________ An 8 dollar driveway boy living in a T-111 shack LOL

I think 84 & 85, still have box and shipping sleeve. The only other 1 I've seen sold on Guns America for around 2200. PM if interested. Barry Mountains of SW Virginia
