I don't know, I've checked the site too, and there is absolutely nothing there about any big-bores.
Don't know why i'm worried though, I've got too many projects going as-is.
Maybe they will get back in the business at some point.

I don't think the new owners,and or the group running it right now is making rifles,,if you check their used gun section you may find one,

THe only one I had a chance to play with was done very nice IMO, and shot well at 50 yards, understood it was to aslo be offered in 4 bore, but don't know if they ever built one.

October country no longer offers their line-up of muzzleloaders, they never offered any cartridge firearms. I own one of their 4-bore single shot rifles and it's a impressive piece of equipment. That was a single barrel called the Heavy Rifle, due to it's 18 pound heft. They never offered the double in 4, only 8 bore. I am not sure why they quit making their rifles.
