Pro Hunter barrel and standard Encore forearm?
« on: December 11, 2007, 07:41:52 PM »
I just picked up a new Encore frame with black synthetic standard stock and forearm and was wondering if the Pro Hunter barrel will work with this forearm or do I need to get a PH forearm? Thanks!

They will work I also bought a synthetic frame set and just got a 28" .243 black fluted pro-hunter barrel works fine with factory standard forend.

Thanks pa hog! That's the same caliber I'm looking to get for yote hunting but in stainless. How is the weight and balance with the 28 inch?

I have that barrel in stainless very accurate and a little faster than my 22 inch remington I get about 225 fps more speed.  3/4 inch at 100yds.  I use 75 gr 85 gr and 100 gr bullets.
