are encore - pro hunter barrels interchangeable?
« on: September 27, 2007, 04:40:23 AM »
are the regular encore and pro hunter barrels and other accessories stocks etc. interchangeable? this has probably been asked, answered before, but i have not been able to find out. the TC site does not specifically state if this is so.

besides the swivel trigger, what are the other benefits of the pro hunter.

i am looking for a 308 and was wondering if i could use my frames with the pro hunter barrel. would the pro hunter stock fit my frame? i would love to buy a new frame, but that would defeat the purpose of the interchangeability of the gun.

I am shooting a couple of encore frames now with the following:
209x50
243 win
204 ruger
375 JDJ
12ga muzzle

thanks

Yes, they do.  I have two regular Encore frames and both have Pro Hunter barrels on them.  I even put a FlexTech stock on one of them.

I'm not sure about muzzle loaders, but would venture to guess they are interchangeable too.

I'm pretty sure that any Encore barrel will fit any Encore frame including muzzle loaders. It's all about having the right forend for your barrel contour.
