When I heard that T/C was seizing all production, I knew I had to put together another Smokeless Encore. I found a .308 Prohunter at a local shop for the donor action. I of course turned to Luke @ Arrowhead for almost everything I needed. Brux/MGM .45 Cal. 26" 1-20" twist barrel w/ Luke's Gen II Breech plug, Added some Spiral Fluting and his Tac Brake. I did a trigger job with all the parts from Bellm's T/C's. The Muzzy Forearm was no problem finding but after a month of searching I finally found a Thumbhole Buttstock as I did not want to use the regular Prohunter Buttstock. I sent the stock set off to Evans Engraving in Virginia to have it hydrodipped in the Kuiu Verde 2.0 Camo. Bought the Vortex Razor HD LHT 3-15x42 and Vortex Rings to mount it all up. The set-up as shown weighs in @ 9.59 lbs... Now I just have to get a little time and sling some of Luke's 275 grain NSR bullets with some H4198 down range and see what she'll do.................
