Outstanding looking pistol. The Xp100 or a ground up build is definitely on my short list! Already having the encore,contenders, and striker.

Funny thing. Ernie got me too. I ended up going the same route as you!! I just need to get my act together and decide on a caliber and chamber then order the barrel. The Borden actions are nice.
That is a nice looking pistol!

Absolutely Bea.......utiful
Wowzers. I refuse to go down that road/rabbit hole. I dipped my toe in a bit with some encores but sold them off last year. I do have a TC contender that I inherited from my brother. I may do something with that one. I got a 223 and a 45/70 barrel. Always wanted an XP but just never happened.
But she is beautiful for sure.
Best of luck with her

Neat
I got out today to try her out. I put 11 rounds through it. Started at 25 just to get centered on paper. Five shots to get used to it and cranking on the turrets to get close. Moved to 100. First three at 100 are lower right. Dialed up and left. Last three weren't bad. I'll need to get used to looking through the scope at longer eye relief distance then used to but all in all, not bad. Really surprised how little recoil. Very fun to shoot. Factory Hornady 175 Eldm.

Fan freaking tastic
REALLY NICE RIG!!!!!
Took it to the range yesterday and zeroed it at 200. No target pics as I didn't want to call a cease fire to retrieve them. They have a 2" steel at 200 so I took a shot, nailed it, dialed 2.5 moa for the 300 yard 6" gong and hit that twice in a row. I dialed back to 200 and hit the 2" again. This thing sure is fun and I know with a little more time I'll be able to tighten things up. Getting used to using the scope like a peep sight.
