New Rock River Arms Website for 2006

I purchased a Tactical Entry Upper for my Alexander Arms Beowulf .50 rifle last year and I put the RRA website on my favorites list. Check out the new page at this http://www.rockriverarms.com/ New rifles for 2006 .

Nice site. But, I'd never order from them directly. I know of a few places that are $50 cheaper and still give their guarantee.

I have to say I know those same sites pred but I am going to have to look at the 458 socom

What is that .458 like compared to the .223? Is it a lot harding hitting round?

.458 is twice a .223/5.56 NATO round . Probably x 4 stopping and penetration also. Its a shame this round isn't making its mark in Iraq. The .50 Beowulf is being used by British units operating in Southern Iraq. just tyoe .458 into google and read.

they rate the 458 socom as a high charged 45-70

Ballistically a 458 SOCOM is somewhere between factory and handloaded 45/70 performance.
