Actually that isn't an out of the question price for one in this part of the country.
 
Yes it is a little on the high side, but like it says they are not produced anymore.
 
I paid around $290 out the door for mine and thought I got a pretty good deal.    It kills me when I see some of the prices a lot of folks on here pay for theirs locally.

This isn't one I'm hot for,
     but if it were I would probably be interested despite the price.


I know I would appreciate a heads up on some of the hard to get ones that I am hot for.

It is a beautiful little rifle, crying shame it was discontinued. IMHO its the nicest looking factory H&R.
 
Its a little expensive, but is not readily avalible so if you want one, maybe time to bit the bullet and pony up...
 
I love mine and mine is now a 454 Cassull...

Yup, if H&R would have offered them at a bit more reasonable price, they would have sold much better which is why is was discontinued, I'm sure. CDNN sold over 300 of em for under $250 shipped!  ;D

If you think that's high, there's another guy in TX on the same site who wants $450 for a 45-70 Buff with no rear sight, only a scope.

IMHO prices above that are simpley sellers lurking the fringes of reality. Looking for the unknowing, people with more $$ than brains. OR people with more $$ than matters to them and they simply buy what ever they want reguardless of costs. There is a couple that sell (Or attempt to ) one GB and other firearm sites asking 4 digit numbers for handis...  ::)
To regular people like us its amusing to see the prices....

There is one in a local store that he's asking  $385 for.  I was excited to see it there, untill I saw the price.  It's been there since they came out and will be there a while longer I imagine.
