Default Cooper still offers the 218 Bee....

Of course they are what I would call spendy.Sure glad I was lucky enough to find a Ruger 1S a couple years ago.The Coopers sure are nice,depending on which wholesaler you use you may find one under $2000- depends on the model a bit.
Good luck on your search,be sure to keep us up to date on what you find.

Cooper makes a bolt action single shot. I own one.
If interested in buying, let me know. Dies and brass would go with it.

In addition to their Model 38 single shot bolt action, Cooper also made a very limited number of a falling block Model 7 Peregrine rifle; a few of which were chambered in 218 Bee. The following link has some pics of this rare rifle.
