Thank you all the info! It looks like the Encore may meet my needs more with the higher pressure stuff.

Bythebook, funny you should mention deer hunting. That would be one of the main uses. Our laws here require a bottleneck cartridge to be 1.4" or less and at least 30 cal. Fired from a single shot handgun or revolver with at least a 4" barrel. Ammo must be factory available with published data showing at least 500 ft/lbs. of energy at the muzzle.

That was a mouthful! Wait for it..............enter the 300 Blackout.


A web trip to Bullberry and Matchgrademachine had me drooling!
