I've been doing some more research on these today. I went out to a few local shops and couldn't find even one.
Online, it seems there's about a $1,200 range on various models. I can see why the Scout model is desirable with its 18" barrel. It's sort of a middle ground area. However, the Loaded and National Match versions also look quite enticing. They all look good, so I'll keep saving and we'll see how long I can hold out and how much I have when I don't want to wait any longer. I figure one will present itself to me wen the time is right. That's how I've come across several of the other things I've acquired.

EDIT: Oops, don't those only come with walnut stocks? And the only difference is stainless or carbon barrels?

Never BAD to want another gun!
Your choice, perhaps.
