Ron,
Just an observation. U really like the odd and different Wildcats don't you? This is an awesome caliber for those that want a Barn Burner
TTT for a good guy>>>>>>>>>>>

good obseravtion , lol i guess that i like the wildcats out there today. This is a stud of a round thanks Ron

TTT for a super nice hunting rig Ron 700.00 TYD

would like to have a nice hornet or a 17 cal centerfire of some sorts

still looking Ron a 17 rem would be nice

Is the 309JDJ barrel a rechamber or barrel by SSK?
What reticle is the Burris 3x12? find plex, duplex or Ballitic Plex.

Can't tell by the photos. Is the frame the later easy open model with the pivot pin above the trigger?

Mike

it is a rechambered factory T/C barrel, the scope has the duplex reticle in it not sure what you are talking about on the pivot pin tell me what to look for and i will look for you thanks Ron

Rechamber or rechamber by SSK?

Hey Ron, what Mike was talking about regarding the pivot pin -

Non easy-open frames have the trigger guard pivot pin at the front of the trigger guard (normally covered by the forend)

Easy-open frames have the trigger guard pivot pin right above the trigger (always exposed)

Hope this helps!

coroner, it was rechambered by JD Jones,
wasp this one has the small pin right above the trigger. thanks Ron

This handgun is damn near a ballistic rwin to the 308Win.The 308 can't be shot in a contwnder platform as it's pressures are too high for the contenders tolerances.As I've said before I have killed many animals with the 309 JDJ and it is a fantastic round for animals up to elk with a good bullet and proper placement.I am in the market for a new handgun and I was thinking about another Encore but this set up with the Burris on top has me doing alot of re-thinking..Let's keep this at the top of the page.
JIM
