Just checked your link - Like most North American suppliers - Won't export!!!!!! You'd think I was trying to buy a "weapon" not a tool for my workshop!
The fact that you could have barrels spun up locally and fit them yourself was part of the Rim X attraction for me -= Guess I came unstuck on that one.
On the other hand, there are great folks like Brad at Nordic who have shipped parts to me on several occasions once I supply the approved import permits!

Where ae you trying to export to?

^the land of the kangaroo and didgeridoo? Not sure why a 700 action wrench won’t work once the ejector is removed(might be easier to source).

Both Ray at Zermatt & a very savvy Rim X smith in the US have told me not to use a Remington 700 wrench on a Rim X.

I live in the middle of nowhere so if I break something, the rifle will go in the bin. We pay double what you fellows do for rifle imports - This rifle cost me A$11.5k delivered so I'm treading carefully with this.

I have another barrel being machined in the US at the moment so I'm going to ask the smith to buy me a wrench and send the lot to the exporter.

Vudoo and Rim-x nice stuff

I will be selling 2 of my 4 vudoo’s to find a new vudoo single shot br rifle with a kestro stock if no one responds to my want to buy ad in rimfire section

bought recently a Rim-x with a anschutz 2013 barrel installed by KS ARMS and will shoot it in the spring

it came with a second IBI barrel I have yet to try but might sell it to find a wait for it

2 additional rim-x barrels
a walther from go big tactical sponsor 1.200 straight and get Henry remple to chamber it and polish the outside crap out of it
always wanted a shiny truck axle as they just look neat, don’t they?

then order a pre-fit from madacam custom rifles in the USA as Johnathan does good work and a guy from the Yukon also spoke well of them
import through prophet river also a sponsor and get it in 4 months
northland has them in stock but refunded my money today as they don’t sell to canucks EVEN THOUGH JUST SENDING IT TO A FFL GUNSMITH IN THE USA

so big plans for this summer for a Rim-x on a second action and play with the first one

I hate threads like this as my bank account seems to shrink during and immediately after reading

Did you try to buy one of these?

They wouldn't even take my money - Let alone refund it. I had Mike Manzella buy one on my behalf - Might see it here in Aus by the end of the year if I'm lucky!
