A custom MGM Brux barrel will run you around $900 for the Encore.

SMI is the cheapest at $400 using a Douglas barrel but 1-36 is the standard twist and there have been quite a few negative reviews in the last couple years related to customer service and communication. Longer than promised wait times will only be worse with a custom order barrel such as a 1-20.
According to their little price calculator on PacNor, $525 for everything (if they do it for a TC Encore platform, shot them an email asking if they even fit up for TC) so yeah I know it's not gonna be cheap.
