Firehouse and Walker45,

You guys have persuaded me. Printed out the coupon. With it, I think I can get OTD for $850 for the rifle I want. Pretty good deal, I'd say.

I notice that the Smith uses a barrel twist rate of 1:9 while Colt and most of the other manufacturers use 1:7. What commercially available loaded ammo (weight bullet and muzzle velocity) is best optimized for a 1:9 16-inch barrel?

Thanks again for your help.
