What is the best route to obtain a 16”+ barrel for my Encore in everyone’s favorite caliber?

I’d like something a bit less recoil than my .45-70 8)

They also sell MGM, if you have the extra coin..... Haus is a good outfit.

“Out of Stock” and “Every now and then a deal comes across that is just too good to be true. This is a very limited run of Thompson Center made barrels that won't ever be made again and HausofArms has the exclusive opportunity to sell them.“

Life is cruel. :lol: looks like I’ll be saving my pennies for the MGM.

Thanks!

Ah, sorry! I saw "out of stock" but I didn't read far enough to catch "will never be made again".

EABCO makes custom barrels too, lead time is huge though.

Also try Eds contenders. Website is a jumble, but it looks like he may have some 300blk. Phone is best way to contact him I think. .

Thanks guys,

I may see if EAB can make what I want. That looks to be a cheaper route than Match Grade Machine.

I really like my Bergara barrel, shoots as good as I can. You might have to work to find one now but they are good.

I believe I waited too long to buy my Encore and I’m late for all the good stuff.

I’ll keep my eyes open for barrels at the gun shows.

I did a bunch of research on this and had planned on going for a MGM, but ended up finding a CVA scout pistol for 150 less than the barrel.
