Frontier still has no 5Rs in stock.As of yesterday,they are quoting two weeks until delivery.

Two weeks isn't that long of a wait for a limited run rifle.

The one that I've been shooting is still with me . Plus there is a second NIB one hiding out in my safe.

Here's a NIB (New In Box) 5R milspec that just came up. $1050.

Very nice.
I put a Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20x 50mm with Rapid Z 1000 yard reticle in Leupold QWR rings with Leupold 2 piece bases on mine. Works really well. I've recently had the trigger brought down to 3 pounds. Although the stock X-Mark trigger was very excellent even at the heavy 5 pounds (very crisp and clean).

I've only shot 168 grain Federal Gold match (off the shelf ammo) and some Fusion 165 hunting ammo for sighting in. Took 2 shots to sight in. The first round was at the bottom of the target paper since it was bore sighted for the centre crosshair which is the 500 yard hold over for my reticle. I counted the 8 squares (1 inch by 1 inch( multiplied by 4 (total of 32 clicks) and was one click off dead centre for my 100 yard crosshair. Sub inch groups around 3/4 of an inch with off the shelf hunting ammo. Sub 1/2 inch with off the shelf match ammo (5 round groups).

I have absolutely no complaints with this rifle.
