Do you mean a encore? Single shot breech lock?
Not sure I know of any bolt action pistols?

Not single shots but a local gun shop closed and I picked up three NIB Remington XP100R's for $211.00 each. Calibers are .223, 260 Rem. and 35 Rem. Have a bunch of Contenders in longer range calibers also. The XP100R .223 see a lot of Prairie Dog usage. It's top with a 3 - 12 Burris Handgun Scope.
If the would of had the 22-250 I would have purchased that also. The plan was to rebarrel the 35 Rem to 6mm BR but I like it to much in 35 Rem. The 260 Shoots well but I don't shot is much so that my turn into a 6mm BR or a 6mm Dasher.

Remington started with the XP-100 in 1963. Since than Weatherby, Savage, Nosler, Anschutz and others have built bolt action handguns. Before Remington there were some target pistols in bolt action be they never were common.

I have a Remington XP-100 single shot in 7mm BR. It is exceptionally accurate, but I don't use it much. I've been thinking about selling it, with the 3x-12x Burris pistol scope, but I don't know how much to ask.
This one sold for $730.99. I see people asking as much as $1400, however, ones that actually sell are between $600 and $900.

I should have added the XP-100R, the Kauger Arms Black Widow, and other specialty pistols that can hold more than one round to the thread.

For those that are not aware Ernie specializes in long range handgunning. Longest shot I've made on a prairie dog is 453 yards. That is a chip shot in Ernie's world.

This is my XP-100 in 7br. I thought I wanted a fajen thumbhole stock in the 90's so had to have the barrel bobbed to make weight. It has a set on Williams rear sights and a redfield front. I am shooting a lbt 130 gr spitzer that shoots as well as I can.

What an 308 Armadillo?

The "Armadillo" series of cartridges are based on the full length 30-30 Winchester case necked to the appropriate caliber, with absolute minimum body taper, sharp shoulder angle, and caliber specific neck length.
Cartridges range from .224 caliber up through and including .375 caliber.
All cartridges are far more "improved" than what any Ackley Improved cartridge is.
These cartridges were designed for the T/C Encore, Ruger #1 and Browning 1885. And since modifying the Remington XP-100 bolt face and installing Sako extractors, the Remington is now included in this list.
Sounds very similar to the 257 JDJ and the 6.5 JDJ. I love my 6.5 JDJ.

Because of the pressure difference between the 30-30 and 225 Winchester brass, the 225 based cartridges are about 100 fps. faster than the 30-30 based cartridges.
But! Use 375 Winchester brass in the Armadillo series of cartridges, then the much stronger brass beats the 225 based cartridges by 200+ fps..
I have an xp100 in 7mmbr, as mentioned, it is very accurate, but I also just don't shoot it as much as I should.

EXPLODING chicken eggs @ 600 yards with a pistol is a lot of fun, and just as "interactive" as full 12 oz. soda pop cans.
I have XP-100's in 7BR and .260 Rem. When I used to shoot IHMSA, would do one 40 with cast bullets "just because".
The only amendment the Democrats support is the 5th.
Bayside Custom Gunworks 7mm Dakota...175 grain ELD-X at 2900 fps.
So easy even a 13 year old can do it.
Got to love ones first shot ever with a specialty pistol...let's start with 500 yards!

XP100 in 7mm BR. It shoots WAY, better than I do!
I also likes the look of the new Nosler, just can't seem to come up with the caliber I want, or the money. Not necessarily in that order
