I guess I am going to have to pull the hammer and spend $776 at Cheaper Than Dirt. That is the best price I have found being in stock. One more question???? Do you guys know of anywhere cheaper I acan get one or shoud I just go with CheaperTD.?
Thanks a bunch.
Check out www.450bushmaster.net there are some used uppers and rifles for sale over there.
Dang, I just looked and things have sure dried up for the 450 Bushmaster lately. IF CTD has them in stock thats probably goin to be your cheapest route. Midway has them for $769 but seems they are out of stock till August. Thats the one downside the 450 busmaster uppers/rifles, they for some reason won't just manufacture barrels/bolts as parts so someone could build their own.
If you are dead set on the bushmaster then that looks like your only route unless you can find one used. Or do like i did, I bought a barrel/bolt for the 50 Beo and built my own upper. Stock ammo is a bid harder to find but if you re-load it's no concern. I love my 50 Beo and have taken several hogs with it.
Just an option
ETA - maybe try Ballastic Advantage, they make barrels for the 450

How good are the barrels from Ballistic Advantage? What else would be needed for the 450 bushmaster upper build? Do they run butter with a certain length barrel/gas set up? Do you have to open up the ejection port?
