Finished my encore.

[blacksheep]

I finally finished my encore. Last year Illinois allowed us to hunt with strait walled cases. So I bought a 45-70 barrel and the build began. It shoots awesome, and kicks pretty good for such a light gun. I had a muzzle brake installed, cerakote black graphite applied and had the stocks dipped in Veil Wideland. It has a Bellm trigger job and oversized pin. Topped with a VX3 3.5-10 and Leupold base and dovetail rings. I'm ready for that buck this year!

I was thinking Contender.
Was gonna say, 45-70 out of a pistol, your more man than me! Lol

Nice looking rifle though!!

They will interchange. Pro Hunter barrels are longer but they all can be swapped in the other frames.

That's why I have bifocal safety glasses at work.
