Just recently got a new barrel for my Encore. It is a 10" Heavy Bull Barrel in 6.5 Grendel. Just took some pics and thought I would share.

That's a good looking rig you got there. What kind of velocity and accuracy are you able to get from that 10" barrel?
I just finished a 1.200" diameter bull barrel for the T/C Encore with a 16 1/2" in length in the 6.5 Grendel and I believe this round would give the "PPC" rounds a run for their money....

ASSASSIN,
Haven't gotten to shoot it for accuracy yet. I only "test" fired six rounds for function after I got it. Had knee surgery last Friday and haven't been able to get to the range for a "good" session yet. I don't have any reloading dies or components yet for this round and only have a few boxes of the Wolf ammo here currently. Once I get some data (velocity, accuracy, loads) I will post them and let you know.
I was looking at a longer barrel for this project when I started, but found this barrel on GunBroker for a price I couldn't pass up! I know you make barrels for the Encore, do you have a site that lists $$$ on barrels, or an email to discuss such a project?
