I have a Rossi 17 HMR and a Rossi bull barrel 223.  223 is very accurate, having trouble getting 17 to shoot, real heavy trigger on it.

Hey shaner-did you say you saw a stainless bull barrel 223? I didn't think Rossi made these in stainless. I knew they make them in a blue bull barrel 223 and 243 as of this year.

Humm. Thats pretty cool then. I would pick one up if it wasn't the whole package deal. I'm not fond of package deals.
 Rossi's are nice little guns and I would like a stainless bull barrel 223.
I wonder where I could find these at. There is no mention of them on Rossi's web site, not in stainless anyway.
But you are right, the price is to high.
