Ordered New Hunting Pistol - The Firearms Forum

SFC · 07-21-2011, 11:26 PM

I have been working with Bulberry Barrels and finally ordered what would work best for my hunt. I love to hunt deer and Elk the most, but needed a caliber with some distance as my 44 mag would take down just about any big game, but within 50 yards.

I ordered a Thompson Center Encore .308 Winchester 15" barrel ported with a 3x12 Burris pistol scope. This should easily give 300 yards with accuracy. It will take 3 months to custom build, should have it in time for the February Javalina hunting season.

Bulberry specializes in custom barrels from varmit to match grade, he located in Utah http://www.bullberry.com/encore.html

Well, after this fiasco with obievil and the debate over payment of the dept. I finally felt comfortable enough to purchase the Scope as this was agreed upon between Bullberry and myself. A Burris 3x12 Ballistic Plex E-1, now 3 months to pay off the remainder of the frame, barrel, etc.
