Tracker II vs. Ultra Slug barrel price difference?
« on: November 20, 2004, 07:03:46 AM »
H&R shows the Tracker II barrel for $58 and the Ultra Slug for $93. The Tracker II seems like it takes more machining to reduce the contour, and it comes with front and rear sights, while the Ultra has just a scope mount. Wonder why such a price difference.

That's a good point.I Never really thought about it. From a manufacturing standpoint it does seem to me that the ultra barrel would be cheaper to produce. Maybe it's just a marketing thing. If it costed the same as a tracker barrel No one would buy the ultra as a stand alone gun.
PROUD REDNECK CONSERVATIVE

I'd much rather be remembered for being a great shot than having the most expensive gun
