Well, I'm sold. I will save up the pennies and buy it before the November firearms sesaon starts. I think it's in the 600 dollar range. They have a camoed thumbhole stock as well but I do not know what that will go for. Its still has all the diffrent centerfire calibers you can buy. But what caught my eye is that you can get a 500 S&W barrel in 20" staniless steel for this model. I don't think the original had that feature. I will definetly get the 500 cannon as I beleive this new gun has added features in the recoil department. Apparently they have several arches in the rear of the stock that are to help with recoil. The design was from SIMS so I trust in them when they say recoil will be reduced by 43% as compared to the original models. This new Pro Hunter is an Encore by TC and I think all the barrels from the orginal Encore can be used as well. The muzzy has a 28" stainless barrel. All the new barrels for this gun are 28" but you can get the smaller ones. Their website is updated and has all the info on this exciting gun.
