I still have my stainless action with synthetic stock and two barrels- .45-70 and 7mm-08. The 7mm wears a Leopold scope but the .45-70 is open sites. Killed my only bull elk years ago with a previous Encore 7mm-08 that I had sold. Always wanted to get a custom barrel in .357 mag but found a Ruger 77/.357 so that itch got scratched to my satisfaction.
