No, but we are trying.
None in Calgary as yet Ted, a few XL7's at WSS still. I asked, was told 'on order'.

The Firearms Blog showed a US MSRP of $1100'ish. That would be about $2k for us. I hope that's not for real...
nope, they don't. They have XL7's, no XLS7's shown yet (on order)
Been away, and just got back home today. Will pick it up tomorrow and get a scope on it this weekend sometime. If it shoots as well as my 270 and 30-06 do, there will be a new 7-08 in the hills this fall. 
Click on the picture to see three groups shot with my handloads. All three rifles are just as they came out of the box.
They also have 243 and 308 in stock in the XS7, and 25-06, 270 and 30-06 in the longer XL7.

What did they ding you for it Ted if you don't mind me asking? Wondering what the pricing this side of the border is going to be like compared to down south.
$450 How can you go wrong?
I'm on my way to pick it up. Might even get to the range today.

brother has one great gun mounted a Bushnell Elite 3200 3-9x44 on it. I've fired it a few times it's a light gun handles nice groups pretty good with the ammo I tried but we was just breaking in the barrel... For a RH gun being fired by a LH shooter I'd say I'd consider getting one if it wasn't for the Ruger77 Hawkeye in LH. Good luck finding one they are worth it

Good luck finding one they are worth itJust got back from the range with the 7mm-08. Put 15 rounds through the rifle using various loads in resized 308 Win brass. The rifle is amazing! Not one three shot group was larger than 1 1/4 inch, and that was with some plier-pulled 154 gr Hornadys.
Three 160 gr Accubonds ahead of 42 gr IMR4350 shot into less than 3/4 inch. Not bad for a rifle that is just getting started.
Going to give the barrel a good cleaning and head back up there after supper. Will take the camera this time.
