There website isn't theres anymore its one of thouse dead websites that advertisers are using now.

This atleast was there contact information:

Rampro Corp.
6731-3 Amsterdam Way
Wilmington, NC 28412
Phone: 910-392-9989

All I can really tell you is that in the 2003 Gun Digest (the only one I bought) it doesnt list RamPro in the manufaturer directory and that on other sites they claim RamPro used to make custom firearms Smile

Hope this helps Smile

Rampro went out of business after filing chapter 11. Their primary product was a single shout unlimited gun for big bore silhouette competition. They made a fine silhouette gun. However, silhouette shooting has fallen upon hard times and the organization membership/match shooter entries are a small percentage of what they were at one time.

the reply I got from brad today

Hello from Utah
Yes I am making the old Rampro actions with some improvements,like a Sako extractor and a better bolt release etc.The action diameter is 1.350 and it is only 4.960 long to the front of the bolt handle and has a tang that feathers out like a Hall.
McMillan has the inletting program so you can talk to them about the
different stocks it will fit in.I don't have the 5.7x28 bolt face,but I will have one real soon because I want to build one necked down to .15 and .17.The port length is 2.030" and I make them right or left,but only have right bolts for now and it does have a one piece recoil lug and any Remington style trigger will fit and it uses a Remington adl trigger guard.You can use 2 Remington front bases of any style or I am making a 1 pc base with a 3/8 dovetail for Kelby etc. rings.I do not have the website up yet,I want to have over 100 actions ready before I do and I am getting real close to that target.I am asking around about an exporter and should know about that after Thanksgiving.I hope I have covered all your questions,if not just email me again or call.

Thanx Brad 801-731-8152

hope this can help you guys



maybe we can get together and make a group buy to help Brad reach 100

if this violates the advertising rules please delete- and sorry but I thought y'all like to know

thanks
