You guys stock T/C too? I'm kinda on the fence between those two.

I have a T/C Encore in 35 whelen and love it. The problem with these single shot crack barrel rifles is they are very susceptible to headspace issues and are prone to developing slop (looseness) in the hinge and lock up mechanism.
With the T/C, these problems are easily fixed for just a few dollars and you can do it yourself. You can swap out a hinge pin or a lock up spring to remove this slop and even shim the breechface forward to fix headspace problems.
