I've been looking and looking for a good used 7mm BR barrel for my Encore...without much success. I've concluded that this is my pick for a medium-recoil deer round this fall.
If the 7BR search doesn't pan out, there are jillions of used 7mm-08 and 308 barrels out there for sale. Question is, can either/both of these rounds be downloaded accurately? Anybody with experience shooting these out of a 15" barrel Encore?
My experience downloading has not been particularly successful, due I believe in part to the fact that reduced charges have powder orientation dependence...
Thanks,
Rich
