so you bought the rifle or going to buy it? and make sure it is a model that fits in the rebate. sometimes its only certain models of each gun like a remington 700 the sps might be on sale but the lss is not.

Nope I bought it and the rebate says all icon rifles $150 venture $75 and TC barrels $50. Even if the rebate does not the field grade Icon on Gun broker the cheapest was $699

What? Rebate? I bought one of those same Icon .243's this spring for the same price.......but I must have spaced something. I never knew or heard about a rebate also.....do I need to look through my paperwork again?

No Icons left in stock according to the guys at SW or whatever it is called.  I stopped by today "just to check."  Did check it out at Cabelas but $849 was too much for me.  Nice score!

Thanks for the offer Sherpa.  I had actually never handled one before and tried out the Icon in a larger caliber.  It was not a good fit for me and felt kinda heavy.  I have a .243 anyway.  I was surprised that I really liked both the Tikka T3 and the Browning X-Bolt the best of what was in stock between SW and Cabelas.  I was just passing on the info to save someone a trip.  Appreciate it though.
