	I Sold the one I had for $800 a year and a half ago . If you are going to rebarrel might be cheaper to buy one in another more common caliber . Dales

	I have a #3 with #1 wood in 7mm Krag Improved and a Borchardt in 30-40 Krag Improved. I really like both of them. I am seriously considering sending the Ruger off to have the barrel fluted and the forearm narrowed to a Shuetzen style as the rifle is somewhat awkward to carry in the field. I think in a Ruger I would stick with a standard 30-40 Krag as you can load it up to respectable velocities and they feed into the chamber so slick. Tom

	Have you checked on the availability of 30-40 brass. At times, its hard to find.
