As far as pricing goes that sounds absolutely fantastic. As for the Rhino-Fire itself, I don't have it and I don't know too much about it, so my opinion is coming mostly from hypothetical battle situations. Do you value moving around a lot and being able to dodge fire? According to the article here (though you were probably there already when researching), the Rhino-Fire uses 6 D batteries which is, for this period in Nerf history, the largest amount of voltage required to power a weapon. This is more important than you might think; being able to easily and safely move the gun in a pinch is necessary, especially outside, and as it will be a heavy weapon you may not have this luxury. On the other hand, with an advertised range of 90 feet, this is by far the farthest-firing machine gun - often meaning it will be much more effective at short range (so very good for inside fighting). I would definitely go for it if you don't mind losing some mobility. Its power (unlike the Vulcan/Stampede) definitely seems to outweigh its downsides assuming no jams or range issues.

The Retaliator happens to be my favorite Nerf gun of all time...it's absolutely worth getting better at it, because with the right marksmanship, the Retaliator is the perfect rifle to dominate the battlefield. Good luck, sir, and Godspeed.
