Well I couldnt help myself I went and bought another T/C barrel for the Encore rifle :-D Now all I have to do is to pick which scope I will go with..
So far I have the 209-50 with a Bushnell Elite 3200 3x9x40
the HB223-26in. topped with the 3200 Elite 5x15x40
and now the 30/06-24in. and thinking about the Elite 3200 3x9x50
I sure like them Elites :-D
Think I have cronic barrelitice,Does anyone have a cure for this sickness, I know another barrel that might work..

The barrelitice, is like "true love". Untill death do us part. :grin: I suppose you could try the 12 step program, just replace the word alcohol with TC. :lol: I don't know if it wll work. I think it depends on your commitment

The Elites are awful nice scopes and the 3200's are fantastic for the cost. The only thing that slows down my barrelitis is knowing I have to buy a scope for each one. This is enough $$$ that I have to plan out a ways in order to afford it. Infact, right now I am one scope down... ohh, the pain , the pain.

I've got the exact same scope (Bushnell 3200 3-9X) mounted on my 209X50 barrel. I'm planning on getting a .308 barrel down the road and already have this kinda figured out. The muzzleloader barrel has the Warne QD rings so I think I'll buy another Warne mount for the .308 and just swap the one scope between the two barrels.

I have so many barrels I am scope poor...need to hear some thoughts on something I have been thinking lately...factory v custom...would it be better to have a few customes or lots of factories?....what a decision
hahahaha..........

If all the factory barrels shoot as well as the two I have right now, I would not hesitate staying with them. The custom barrels do hold some intrigue for me, but with the one rifle barrel I can shoot dime size groups at 100 and 200 yds, and the muzzleloader shoots 2" (I need to work on some good loads here) . . . eh, I think I will stay with them. :wink:

Sounds Great! In the next couple of weeks im planning on getting two barells. 1-.223 stain. HB, 2-.300win mag stain HB. I have looked at the Elites and like what i have seen.Bushnell has always been a great scope for the money and i like the ones i allready have.Swift seems to be another scope that is priced right with good quality.
