I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with these firearms?
I've always been a big fan of a walnut stocked rifle, and these are the only recent releases stocked in walnut.
I've owned LOTS of sidelocks over the years, and hunted with them all.
The last few years I've been shooting a BoneCollector - T/C Triumph. Most accurate BP rifle I've ever shot.
I'm happy with it, but miss the beauty of walnut.
Any experience with the Strike or Redemption is appreciated.

I do not have any experience with that model, but must agree with you on the walnut furniture. I have never been able to warm up to resting my cheek on a plastic stock.

the main complaint is the scope mount is pushed way forward by design. It requires a scope with a lot of eye relief, or offset mounts that usually end up too high and mess with cheek weld.

I have a LHR with a Nikon 1x6x42mm scope mounted with standard 30mm rings, and the eye relief is perfect.
The scope has 4" of eye relief.

Thanks to you both for your input. Is there a particular bullet that it favors?
I use Powerbelts exclusively in my in-lines with great results, plus they load very easily.
