The 6CM has become my favorite predator cartridge.
The 108 ELD M kills well and doesn't destroy fur. Face on shots on wolves and coyotes have resulted in a 6mm entrance and no exit. Good feedback, thanks!

Just saw this thread...
The Barrett’s on sale were purchased at a special price. Barrett had some inventory on rifles they are no longer planning to manufacture. I think I bought 51 in total? The good news, only half shipped in the first go round. More are coming.
As to the pricing changes - the programmers were working out some kinks. Prices fluctuated for a couple days. The other potential issue - if we sell out of the rifles at the special price of $1150 and the distributor providing us a feed has some left in stock, the price on our site goes back up to reflect the distributor’s price (not our sale price).
Hope that explains it. I know we still have some 18” threaded guns on the shelf. I also know more 21” guns are coming 😀 Are you at liberty to say which will no longer be manufactured?

I know quality guns are costly but does any one other than me buck and kick at these prices? I'm looking at custom work on a project of mine. It looks spendy but the 'smith has to make a living. Still...……...…. I like to buy used guns when I can find the features I want. Be Well, RZ.

The Fieldcraft is a bargain, for sure.....if considering NULA price and even CM Forbes prices with spotty quality control.

I was interested but came to my senses but those fieldcraft rifles are nice but not that nice. I'll stick with my Tikkas 6.5 CM rifles and 7-08's.

I'll call on the listing that has no description. I think it's a 22-250 with 7 left. If it's the 21" version, I'll have another coming my way.
243's are also on sale again.

Just called and verified this is the 21" 22-250. They now have 6 left. He said he just got them in yesterday. Easiest path to a 1-7" 22 CM. https://www.whittakercountry.com/product/63489ETA: He updated the listing now with description.

Mine showed up, too. 6CM and 22-250. And just realized the 22-250 is a 1-8 twist. I have plenty of 75 gr amaxes to shoot, so it's perfect.
