There are a few on Gunbroker right now !! If I didn't already have a SPS Tactical sitting in a 5R stock with a BO bolt knob installed waiting on glass, I would buy one !

However now that I see Remington already producing them in 20" length, I figure why not buy that one too. I always thought 2 is better than 1. Though, multiple Nightforces and AICS's sure can get pricey.

I don't know when I'll ever get the opportunity to get to a 1000yds, given our limited range distance here and I'm sure the 20" models perform as well as the 24's do, considering they still are 5R's but I just wanted to hear some actual field reports.
