Same DNA. Three generations. 🎯

Same platform. Full evolution.

100 hours in the stand. One shot that mattered. 🌕

Retired Houston PD Lieutenant Duke Atkins bet his Model 89 could handle Texas hogs. We shipped him a Black Thunder in .500 S&W Magnum and told him to prove it.

Full moon. Thick brush. Fully nocturnal hogs. One shot, one hog, dropped where it stood.

"Do not have any doubts," Duke said. "This rifle will harvest any hog you want to put in front of it."
