Of all the new BS to come out, there is only one that has my attention. Its the Savage 110 Ultralight with a proof research barrel 1200.00. Just the barrel is 900.00. I am not a savage fan, but this is one that I might break down and have to have. Not decided on caliber but it come in 6, 6.5 creed 270, 27, 28 nosler, 300wsm. I would bet god money that this will be a huge success, and a great shooter.

Handled a Nosler M48 today at Cabelas. Felt like a really nice Howa. I liked it a lot from what I could tell. OP - if you get your rifle back, send it my way!

Went to 1. 5 MOA rifle. It went down the road. I spoke of this earlier in this thread. It's the primary reason I buy few used guns. It was brand new ever we got it. The guy who bought it knew exactly what he was getting. He just wanted to say he had a Nosler rifle in 28 Nos

But it doesn't have a "bragging name" on it.

It's a shame that there is no technology that would allow you to send yourself a notification when you time bind yourself to a customer. If there were, it could have prevented Nosler from standing their bitchy customer up 3-4 times.

It's official. I missed the selfie deadline so I'm Maser's sock puppet because rene and the Polish half of the fubar twins have decided that I am.

My email to Daniel may have led him to believe a response wasn't necessary. He has not responded. I forwarded this to Patrick Mundy, the VP for sales and marketing, for his visibility.

I just got a call from Pat Mundy, Nosler's VP of sales and marketing. He was aware of my issue. He said he tried to call last week and again Monday, but must have had the wrong number. I guess Nosler has another problem. Keeping track of the contact information of customers who have to return rifles.
I am frightening technically challenged. I have no doubts though that I could come up with an electronic status board to track returns and prompt me to follow up when I told a customer I would follow up. When I authorized a return I'd add the Customer name, address, email and phone number. Customer service 101 stuff.
That aside, he took responsibility for the problem. He acknowledged they had screwed to pooch. He said Shilen had sent them a replacement barrel, but it had been misappropriated to a different project while it was in the shop waiting to be installed. They have a new barrel coming. He guessed it would take a week to get it in and no more than a week to get it installed. I told him that if the rifle hadn't been repaired within a month, that I'd like a follow up. That's where we stand.

Call me a cynic, but with that phone call we can add two more failures to the list. They lost track of my barrel and they lost my phone number.

I would have asked for notification when the Shilen barrel came in, and then notification of when the barrel is installed/chambered, and then another notification of the results of the test-fire, including a photo of the target. Then finally, a last notification of the rifle being shipped, and exactly when I could expect its arrival. When you are dealing with people who have the comprehension of children when it comes to responsibility, you have to make them accountable for every step, otherwise, the fumbling will continue.

I think Nosler are some of the last of the Good Guys and are a responsible and proud company. "Clusters" happen sometimes. They seem to have owned up to it and are genuinely trying to sort it out.

Nosler doesn't have a single barrel in house in your caliber to be used immediately? Understand they need to fit it yet but I find that VERY hard to believe that just like your barrel got "borrowed" for someone else - the same couldn't happen for you. Be it new production or whatever.
You got sold a line...

If I gave a damn, I would have asked for that. At this point I am largely over it and expect further errors. But you left out an important part if they were to communicate step by step. "Confirm customer's mailing address." The way they are running the show, they may end up sending it to you. Then I'd owe you a damn apology.
