For the official record they are in stock here. I reserved one for myself just this morning... Had two LGS check this morning and not in stock in NY. Is there a magic word you have to use when calling about these?

The ones here have been sitting here for a couple of years. I ran the flag up the pole when I saw them and posted pictures. Shortly after I was told to delete the thread and behave as if I had never seen them. They are still sitting here. At least now I can take one home.

I don't know if I'd like it enough to buy it but I think a Super Redhawk in .22 Hornet would be a fantastic varmint gun.

Wonder how long before they show up because im in on one. Ive seen where people are complaining about the price i think suggested retail is 1499 but of course street price is 999 which is the normal price ive seen for 44 super redhawks and less than the 454 so i dont get what they are complaining about, is it supposed to be cheaper because its a 22 hornet? I think its cool and hopefully someone will pump out some hornet ammo

I see the one on gun broker lists the barrel at a 1 In 9 twist… can anyone confirm this???
On my custom, we used a 1 in 9 ( this was 10 - 15 years ago ) I really like the twist rate, and have handloaded up to 68 grain bullets at typical hornet pressures with good stability…
Now the next thing… is the cylinder long enough to make use of the twist rate if that’s accurate???

FWIW I work for the dealer who posted the FB gun. These have been sitting here for years. Ruger instructed us not to talk about them. When they got posted on the Ruger web site that was interpreted as a go ahead and sell them signal

When they got posted on the Ruger web site that was interpreted as a go ahead and sell them signal I wonder why would Ruger do that? I mean isn't the whole idea of manufacturing and distribution to get stuff in the pipeline to be sold so a manufacturer can make more? To sell? And make stockholders happy? Weird.

Haven't a clue. That marketing hype is way over my head. Best I remember they showed up just before the pre COVID shot show. We looked at them, I posted pictures here, and then we were told to delete the pictures and that we never saw them. They have been sitting here since then waiting on the go ahead from Ruger.

Cool gun! Gotta buy one when the price settles down. I need another gun to stick inside my crammed safe so I can buy plenty of components for it and most likely will not fire it for years, lol
