Mossberg bolt action in .223?

[jlwilliams]

  I heard a rumor (from a Mossy sales rep) that they were 'working on' bringing their 100 bolt action out in .223.  Anybody else heard such a thing?  Any inside scoop on "if or when"?

  I'd really like to see it.  Mossberg makes a very cost competative rifle, and .223 is the most affordable .22 centerfire ammo (reloading aside) so it seems like a natural to make the gun in that caliber.

I have a long time for them to bring out a rifle in .223--gave up--this comming weekend I'm buying a savage package deal at Bass Pro for $400.00
