ARH has the HW95--(R9) --in all three calibers for 399.00........not bad.

A lot of the used tuned R9's are going for this price

Could be, but there are none on the GTA or Yeloow...been looking for one myself. The used untuned are going for 350.00. 399.00 for new isn't a bad price.

Yup, "three day inspection" from ARH included "select grade", and no premium for .20- not a bad deal at all. I had to look the other way... again.

I love my B26 but I think an R9 in .20 would be the proverbial cat's meow.

Deanda,
I agree that isn't a bad price. Used R9's disappear real quick when they appear on the classifieds. It's funny, they seem to show up in spurts, you don't see any for a while, then several show up at the same time. If you find and R9, think about installing a Vortek system. I had Tom at Vortek install his system in both of my R9's. What a difference. The .177 is shooting JBS 7.9 at 952 fps with 16 fpe, and he .20 is shooting H&N 11.5 at 830 fps with 17.5 fpe. Accuracy has improved also. Both have one ragged hole at 20 yards

That is probably the problem.....they go so fast I just miss them.
I was on the Vortek sight this morning. I'm going to have to try one. They have added a lot since the last time I was there. They are definitely putting in a serious effort, and the site looks good.

Yeah, you have to monitor the classifieds pretty closely. I've seen them sold in as little as 5 minutes after they're posted. Tom has a system for a couple of the AG's on your list. The R7 would be awesome with a Vortek installed.
