They don't list any in stock but you can chose to be notified when they come in and, usually, chose from a number of Shops to have one shipped too. Bought my Savage MK II that way from a guy that runs his gun shop from home, not to far from me.

Whether you want to call them "entry-level" or "budget" (I call them dang good knock-around coyote guns), you will be very pleased with your choice. The fit/finish isn't high-end and the stock isn't the best, but they can definitely shoot. Both my .223 and .243 Steven 200 will easily shoot sub-moa.

Best groups (both rifles are wearing Swift Premiere 4.5-14x42 mil-dots):

.223 - .5" (at 100 yards) with various factory ammo.

.243 - .5" (at 100 yards) with a custom 60 gr sp load, and under 1.5" (at 200 yards) with the Hornady .58 gr moly-coated V-Max factory load. This is the first and only time that the .243 has been shot.

... impressive for sub-$300.00 rifles.
