Does anyone know when this bad boy hits Canadian shelves?

http://www.ruger.com/products/americanRimfireTarget/models.html

I see grouse river has a "pre order" they seem to be the only ones.

I intend on picking one up asap.

I know, if you read the specs they are very nice too... 60 deg bolt throw, one piece rail, heavy barrel threaded, nice oversized bolt knob, Patent-pending Power Bedding® integral bedding block system positively locates the receiver and free-floats the barrel, adjustable trigger.... Tons of good stuff for a VERY reasonable price.

I sent an email to grouse river as they are taking "pre orders" asking for a guess when they will hit us. I want one... bad. lol
 
But a 3-5 lbs trigger, on a "target" model?? Looks like a copy of the Savage Accu-trigger, should be able to go down to 1lbs or less.... I'll pass.
 
Especially because I intend on using mine in the field on game not just at the bench. Gets dicey using that light of a trigger out hunting.
 
ya when i saw those come out i had the new gun sweats cause i want one in 17HMR!

when i was at the LGS last week the kid at the counter looked it up for me and its listed from the Canadian Distributor but shows none in stock.
so im guessing they are just awaiting them to be sent up.

usually they need to fill orders down in the states before we see any overflow come up to here.
as is such with most all new Ruger products.

im expecting them summer fall at the latest.
already have my money set aside for one!

SO FAR AWAY! lmfao, I have cash waiting for it also... May be spent on another 22 :S lol then ill have to "save up again". Duno if I wana drop 1500 on a dlask custom or an annie, or save some cash and do a cz 455 varmint. This rifle would solve a lot of issues. LMAO

I couldn't wait... Grabbed the CZ 455 LUX and have enjoyed it so far. Can't believe how much the prices have jumped the last few months though. By the time these get up here they will cost 20% more.

You should...I want a range report and some nice pics! :) In all seriousness...winters are long, and $ burns a hole in my pocket for the most part. Promised myself I wouldn't buy/sell any 22s this year and I've sold 1, bought 2. lol I figure that at the very least...I could liquidate a bouquet of them down the road and catapult myself into an Anschutz budget. I've yet to buy anything from Nordic, but have sure skulked around their site plenty of times.

Would be hard for me to NOT buy another CZ if I had the budget for one, but that Ruger rifle you're pining for has me intrigued.
