The sales should be kicking in soon.

Regarding the Savage 10MLII, I'd say this ML is among the top of the ML In-Line food chain.
I don't personally have one, but I've shot and hunted with one. They are very nice and built like a tank! I really like the way the bolt locks the primer in tight.
From what I understand, the "Vent-Liner" on the 10MLII is good for several hundered shots if properly cared for. And they are only a couple of bucks in costs. Every cherry has a pit I suppose.

I've got a line on a New T/C Firestorm with the 209 1:28 config for $182.00.

Looks like a good deal to me. If I can get the finance director to approve the purchase, I'll likely pick up the Firestorm. Although, I have gotten several toys this year...
