Word of caution with Bergara barrels on the Encore frame.
DO NOT USE ANY LARGER CALIBER BELTED MAGNUM ON A LEADSLED. Like a 300 WM or 7mm RM.
The barrels "hinge pin block" cannot take the recoil and will separate leaving a gap between the locking bolt and the block. Any separation will look like vertical stringing. Use on sand bags or something simular.
How would I know this?
Do yourself a favor and for a little more money get yourself a barrel from MGM. Shilen Match Grade!!

Their locking bolt and hinge pin block is the same grade as a T/C barrel!!
