Scooby on Encore Rimfire barrels and conversions

[mikemayberry]

I am thinking I want to shoot .22 rimfire from my Encores and I believe there are two ways.

One is to buy the offset barrel that works with the current firing pin.  Does anyone have one of these and can you comment on how it works?  Anyone have one they want to sell--PM me.

The other way is to buy a rimfire barrel that requires changing the firing pin on the Encore frame.  Having cleaned the firing pin and seeing how easy it is to take out and replace, that would not be a problem for me.  Anyone have one of these they want to comment about or sell?  If so, PM me.

Thanks!

Mike

I have the first one made by Mike Sirois at OTT. It is marked as a Prototype. It will shoot at 100 yds just about as good as most of my 22 rifles including my 22 Target rifles will at 50 yds. It's the most accurate 22 I have evewr owned. The only thing I don't like about it is it's a full bull 20 inch rifle barrel. You can't tell it's offset at all even on the rifle frame. And the best thing about it is you don't have to bother with changing out the firing pin assembly, just switch barrels like usual.
Give Mike a call 1-603-750-3232
His place is called On Target Technologies
I also have a 14 inch 357 Maximun barrel for my Encore pistol and it is an absolute tack driver.
