Encore OCTAGON barrel
« on: March 04, 2005, 05:33:08 AM »
Ok I just got my first Encore rifle in 209-50 and want to know if Fox Ridge Outfitters or someone else makes/can make octagon rifle barrels in 45-70?
Any information would be helpful       :grin:

Thanks

I know SSK lists octagon barrels on their site. You should probably check with OTT also. I'm not sure who else might make them.

OTT will do octagon barrels, with some removal of material off the bottom to fit frame contour and lug.  As I understand it, TC lost their equipment for octagon barrels in their fire, that's why they no longer offer them.
