I think that you will have to get a .17 cal. rod. I don`t think that anyone one makes one for .20 cal. yet.

I was wondering if any one has gotten a .204 ruger barrel for there encore yet.  I ordered one in early Febuary and they are still on back order at midsouth.  i wish that i would have waited because i've seen them on ebb a few times.

My local gun shop has one. He thought I would be interested in it. I told him if my 22-250 could not get the job done, I need to quit hunting.  But as far as the cleaning rod, use the .17 cal rod for now.  :D

TrophyHunter;  I have a 204 Encore barrel on order with MidSouth (since Feb) and the last I heard (2 days ago) was that they have only received one shipment!  I guess you and I weren't the first ones to order our barrels!
They told me that they should be in by mid-August!
Who Knows????????

I'm just anxious to see how this round is going to perform!
