You are the second person that I have heard about the 30-06 in the Encore. I think the first person had a problem because of a custom barrel he had on his as opposed to a regular encore. They are good shooters ..have you called Thompson Center customer service and asked them ?

Mike...I had the same problem with my 25-06 barrel...drove me nuts! I had the screws on the forarm too tight and the shots were all over the place. Now I just keep them &quot;SNUG&quot; and it's now a tack driver...<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Hunt Safe!

Jack
