This rifle looks awesome. Anybody have an estimated MSRP/street price?
Guns.com Reports On This Years New Guns at the 2012 SHOT Show in Las Vegas - Gun News at Guns.com
FNH Ballista
Probably the most impressive performance of the day was Guns.com’s Aaron Samsel knocking around a metal plate from 1000 yards with the FNH Ballista, a multi-caliber precision rifle. We waited about 20 minutes to test it out, but O brothers, I tell you it was worth it. Four pings out of five. This particular model was chambered in .308. More to come.

You see in this world there's two kinds of people my friend. Those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig?

Sign me up.
Make no mistake my friend. It isn't the revenge I'm after, it's the reckoning. http://www.youtube.com/user/Xendrius
Looks pretty cool. Saw some stuff on it a year or so ago, so I'm kind of wonder if/when they'll become available.

Very nice looking rifle. Wouldn't mind picking one up one day if the price of a used one is attractive.
One of the videos I have seen mentions fn is the importer of the rifle and that the rifle is actually german made by another company. Any info on that?
That is correct. See here: FNH Ballista Precision Sniper Rifle

Unique Alpine has a quite bad reputation, here in Europe, with regard to after sales-service.
