Benjamin 'Rogue' - listed in Cabela's catalog. $1,300, but no powder or primers needed... :wink:

Pretty amazing stuff. I like the fact that it's from Benjamin and not some Chinese manufacturer with zero hopes of warranty service.

Quackenbush makes those nice .458 air rifles which shoot a 430 grain bullet at 730fps starting at $660. Look good too. Sort of like a 20 gauge shotgun with a full length tube but mounted in wood meant for a bolt action gun... but his news page says he is full on orders for the foreseeable future :(

Some of the Benjamin rifles are being made in China. I'm sure the Crosman/Benjamin folks are still standing behind them though.

Any of you guys ever shoot one? I'd love to know how loud they are...

Man, I'd love to have one. Unfortunately, I don't have an extra $1,300 hanging
around this month. :cry:

That'd be GREAT fun, methinks.
