Gave In To Temptation
I could place the blame on Dave with all those great groups he got with the Remington Genesis or I could just tell the truth and say I gave in to the temptation of Cabelas sale on the blued rifle with the camo stock and who could say no to that twenty dollars off on a hundred dollar order or more. To top that off a thirty five dollar rebate from Remington. My flesh gave in and I placed the order this morning now for the back order wait which may take two weeks. [X(][X(][X(][X(][X(][X(][X(]

RE: Gave In To Temptation
With all the money you save on the gun, you can buy some FPBs. They shoot great in my Genesis.

RE: Gave In To Temptation
Hey WVM,
I too gave into the same temptation. Seemed like a deal too good to pass up. |
RE: Gave In To Temptation
 I could be to blame?  Well you got a great rifle. Nothing to feel bad about. Semisane wants one also,but is too stuborn to get one along with a jug of blackhorn powder.. so I have to work on someone.You got a great rifle, I am sure it is going to give you years of pleasure. Just pay attention to them allen head bolts on the bottom and make sure they go back in the same hole they came out of. |
RE: Gave In To Temptation
Thanks for the tip. I'd like it to be my longer range gun.
Hey Semisane... If you have a Cabelas' card, they are offering $30 off purchases between $100 and $199. This along with the rebate is almost a steal. If you don't have a card and sign-up for one, I believe you can get another $20 off. You could also buy the gun, powder and a few accessories totaling $199 and not pay for it until next December. No, I don't work for Cabelas ;) |
RE: Gave In To Temptation
Thanks Gobbler. I do have a Cabala's card and thought about that deal for a little while. I probably ought to get one just because of the price, but they just don't tickle my fancy. Still going to check out the after Christmas price on the X7 though. Other than the Mustang, the X7 is the only in-line that makes me smile.

RE: Gave In To Temptation
That's a really tempting deal. Do you have to pay a ffl fee and have it shipped to a ffl dealer or how does that work? What's the total cost of the gun in the end? Any links to the Remington rebate?

ORIGINAL: hometheaterman That's a really tempting deal. Do you have to pay a ffl fee and have it shipped to a ffl dealer or how does that work? What's the total cost of the gun in the end? Any links to the Remington rebate? The total cost is the gun + shipping + taxes where applicable. You go to Remington.Com and download a form. With that form and your gun you mail them the receipt, the end of the box, and answer all their questions. They in turn will mail you a check for $35.00 so you have to wait for that rebate. How long, I do not know. I don't have mine back yet. I have no idea how to get the money back from Cabela's. I did have a twenty dollar off coupon, so I actually got $55.00 off the cost of the rifle (once the rebate gets here). |
RE: Gave In To Temptation
I'm from VA if that matters as to if I can have it shipped to my door. I don't see any restrictions on Cabela's site for my sate. Anywhere else I should check?
I'm very very tempted to order this. I don't really need another muzzle loader but this deal is almost too good to pass up. One last question. Is this thing tapped for scope mounts? Basically I'm wondering if all I will have to do is buy scope mounts, rings, and scope? Any suggestions for mounts and rings? I have a spare Leupold VX-1 3x9x40mm scope I'd probably stick on here if I got it. BTW What kind of groups are you getting with yours? Is the blued barrel hard to keep from rusting? My only other bp gun has a stainless steel barrel. |

My only other bp gun has a stainless steel barrel. The gun comes pre tapped. You can order the bases and rings from Traditions Firearms. Get the high mounts. The Yukon parts all fit the Genesis.  I have a 1x32mm scope on mine. And that load is a good shooting load. As for a blue barrel rifle.. clean them and keep them oiled. They do not rust. I have rifles that are over 30 years old and there is no rust on them. |
