$98 - ok I'll step in here with only heresay knowledge about this one, greylynx question about how many rounds through barrel kind of important on this one as the .264 often called the "throat toaster" with life expectancy on barrel reportedly not so great, I know back in the day (as my grandson keeps asking me what life was like back in the day, well we had a Trudeau then too) the 7 mm took over from .264 and my life long favourite after buying .270 BSA when 14 and was my rifle until into my forties, most often seen as better all around rifles if hunting both deer and elk, interesting though .264 reported faster and flatter light medium bore and drops 6 inches less than either of the above at 500 yards but long range shooting that far has never been my thing, I wonder how available factory ammo is for the .264, sorry Slickcat don't seem to be endorsing this rifle but the variable Leupold scope sounds good
