Here is my Encore .45-70 with an AAC EVO .45 suppressor attached. Been testing out a few Sub loads with the LEE .459-500-3r mold and Unique.
Real fun to shoot! Here's a youtube link if you want to check it out, Thanks.

Nice video!

Might want to look into the "Taco Hold" that is used in Handgun Silohuette shooting. Much more stable than the tea cup

[Doc Highwall]

I liked the video also but I would suggest that you not close the gun with that flipping motion as it will ruin the frame and barrel. A more delicate closing will help it to last longer and keep accuracy

nice Video I like that set-up, how much weight does that suppressor Add?

The Suppressor weight is 10oz, it does look ridiculous on the end of the barrel, but the extra weight isn't really that noticeable.

Have an encore in 223 26 inch bull stainless. Farthest confirmed kill on a prairie dog is 564 yds. I love mine.

Just got done getting everything in for this one, hopefully get it scoped up tomorrow. 18" 1-14 twist 357 maximum barrel from MGM on a pro hunter frame. I had E Arthur Brown do a trigger job on it before they shipped it and I highly recommend there work the trigger is great.

And while I am posting pics here's my 20" katahdin 45-70 barrel on stainless pro hunter frame.

[BCRider]

I had this .500S&W Magnum shoulder thumper for a couple of years and shot roughly 150 rounds through it during that time. But it was really only good for beating up the shoulder for recoil giggles at the end of the day after all the serious shooting was done. Everyone that shot it thought it was huge fun. But it never really did group that well. Mind you I didn't play with it much for sighting in.

I've since moved on and sold it recently to a buddy that wanted the handgun length barrel and was going to mate the action to a rifle barrel and flip it.

And before you all call me a dastardly criminal our SBR laws are very different up this way. What you see is considered as "non restricted" up here North of the 49th.

That is nice. I had Virgin Valley build me a 20PPC in about 1999. I wish I had never sold it. I was going to do a 20vartag after reading about it but got side tracked on the ppc which was a little overbore.
