    It is a very attractive rifle. I don't know why, but I just like that stainless barrel and muzzle brake with the rest of the rifle. You can get 8 rounds in the mag, two more than if it were a 45/70 (and I really like 45/70, so I'm not knocking that round).

    .
    The concept reminds me of the 50-95 in the old Winchester 1876. The 50-95 is on the left in comparison to a 45-70.

    That sure is pretty & expensive. :spend:

    I can get 10 rounds into my AR version for less than half the cost.

    I’m a big fan of the .458 SOCOM. That being said, I have less than the cost of that lever gun in my AR and my Savage bolt action even with Vortex glass.

    It's sure purdy. And I loves me some .458SOCOM. But I'll stick with the AR.

    And if you're a bolt gun guy with $2200 burning a hole in your pocket, there's this one;)...
