270WBY Encore?
« on: February 27, 2007, 03:40:23 PM »
I've heard no one will build barrels for the WSM's and the Ultra's but can you get one in a Weatherby from a custom shop. A 270Wby in a 28"bbl would be sweet! I thought the pressures were too high, but a friend of mine said he heard someone makes them. I'm new to the Encore stuff so sorry for the noob question. Brett

Thanks for the info Shaleetoo.  BTW do you have a 270Wby, and if so, how does it shoot?  Thanks, Brett
