Handi Names its crazy
« on: March 07, 2009, 03:42:20 AM »
Ok i've been on the H&R website and looked at the rifles and I need some clarification. I've see rifles that have Ultra Hunter stamped on the barrel, I have seen them stamped Ultra Rifle. Also what is the difference in a Ultra Varmit and a Ultra Rifle. I talked to customer service awhile back and they told me that some have Ultra Hunter and some say Ultra Rifle and they will be the same gun. Is their a difference between Ultra Varmit and Ultra Rifle. The website says my SB2F20 is a ultra Varmit but the barrel says it is a Ultra Rifle Any comments

The Ultra model numbers with the F are fluted barrels of which there are three, all with the synthetic Choate Varmint stock, all Ultra Hunters have 22" sporter barrels, except the 444 and 45-70 thumbhole versions which are heavy 24" stainless. Ultra Varmints are all 24" bull barrels, they come with laminated monte carlo or thumbhole stocks. What's marked on the barrels is irrelevant other than the chambering, barrels are made in runs of 50 to 500, what model they end up on is up to them, barrels have been marked with lots of different names over the years, some say Handi-rifle, SB2, SB2 Ultra, etc.
