Yup. I have seen a couple and shot one. They are super nice. The falling block closes like a bank vault. Fit and finish was great. I shot a 30-40 AI. We wre fire forming 30-40 to AI, and accuracy at 100 yards was good.

Think Ruger #1 falling block type action. Very strong. Looks like a streamlined Contender, but barrels do not interchange. Takes high intensity cartridges like the Encore, not quite as quick to reload. Handled one at a gun show in FLA., nicely balanced.

Why, yes I have seen one. In fact, the last time was when I opened my safe! Extremely high quality, absolutley great trigger, superbly accurate (mine's in 30 Herrett) and it uses TC scope mount rail. Other than that, I have nothing good to say about it, except that I bought mine at my friends shop from a personal collection for the grand total of a price I'm too embarassed to share! I say buy it!! The only real disadvantage I see is that the tubes are not interchangable, but it does give you a fine piece to learn about accuracy. Enjoy!! Gerry

I've seriously thought about getting one of those for a LONG time...but then I get back to being limited to one caliber and the urge passes. If I'm gonna be limited to one chambering...I'll go with a bolt action handgun...but the Strikers can have the barrels swapped...and even the XP's can be set up for this.

Well of course I want one but do to the cost I think I'll work on getting that Freedom Arms 1st, that's unless I run into a great buy like I did on my .358jdj Bbl.one I just could not walk away from.
