    Can you sell fore ends separately?

    I'm looking for a fore end for a 10" octagon barrel.

    With a factory carbine butt stock the 14" handgun barrels are legal to install on carbine frames OAL = 27 1/2" - 28 1/2".

    that they are...but range and accuracy will be abysmal...

    also, PR, can you post when the rifle barrel's go up. I keep checking rifle consignment...but I'll probably forget to check later...

    (
    I have been doing this for years now have four 14" Contender handgun barrels that I mount on carbine frames chambered in 338JDJ#2, 375JDJ, 45 Colt and 45-70.

    You would be amazed at how accurate these combo's are.

    I would not hesitate to hunt/shoot deer with the 45 Colt out to 150 yards and 200 yards for the 375JDJ & 45-70 on game up to moose.

    I am just starting to work with 180gr Accubonds in the 338JDJ#2 loaded to 2500fps it is still doing over 1800fps @ 300 yards if my accuracy goals are reached I will shoot up to moose size game with this 27 1/2" combo out to 300 yards.

    The 35 Rem and the 445 mag barrels that are for sale would be awesome light weight - fast handling deer hunting combo's but I'd limit myself to appr 100 yards with these.

    hey, have you printed on paper with the .45-70 @ 200 yards?

    what was your load?

    my brother has one of those for his Encore that I inherited when he died, so I could re-purpose it.

    I've shot a lot of paper with all of my rifles especially the Contenders carbines.

    With the Super 14 45-70 barrel I mostly shoot 300gr - 350gr jacketed and cast bullets I zero them 1" - 1 1/2" high at 100 yards with a VX2 1-4X duplex reticle scope held on the tip of the bottom post is dead on at 200 yards.

    Every time I'm at the gun club someone has to come over and ask about my Contender carbines especially the 14" barreled setups in 375JDJ and 45-70 so I let them take a shot but they have to shoot freehand at the 200 yard gong no one has ever missed the gong.

    Your shooting an Encore you can push your loads to far higher pressures than I can with the Contenders.

    I also have a 21" 375JDJ and a 22" 45-70
