45's, I apologize if I sounded blunt or rude earlier.

I really find it interesting that a breakopen single shot was faster than a bolt for three shots...the only thing that has me wondering is if Thompson/Center was an advertiser that sponsored the production because products selected for use in outdoors shows and magazine articles are not selected at random and the T/C Encore may have been the featured product. I have no doubt whatsoever that a double rifle would be a lot faster than the bolt.

I tend to trust people posting on this forum though more than I trust a magazine or a film production. It seems as though in magazines and videos all products are great no matter what the test results are.
