[QUOTE="CZ284, post: 527457, member: 3482"] My son shoots an Encore in 7/08. I had the barrel made for him by the TC custom shop and at the suggestion of the guy there, had the barrel in 21 inches. He made one for his son, them made another for himself since it shot so well. My son loves his and is now 17 but prefers it since it handls so nice. I shoot a 284 Winchester (being an old steel silhouette shooter), mainly because of the ballistic performance of the 7 mm bullet- they retain velocity extremely well. Suggestion- try the 7/08 with the Barnes Triple shock bullet. I think my son shoots 42 grains of H380 with 150 grain bullet- 2500 FPS- very deadly amd mild recoil. Anyone familiar with the Barnes performance will vouch for the penetration and lethality of them. [/QUOTE]
