Here is my 450 bm Encore. MGM 1:16 twist 26" polished stainless fluted with black coating in the fluting. Stock is bone grey Revolution laminated thumb hole. I modified the rifle forend because I thought it looked long to me. I shortened is about 2" relocated the sling stud and put a double angle back cut to add some character. Us carpenters can do that. Lol
New action with trigger job done set to 2 lb. 12 oz. DNZ medium one piece mount and a Leupold VX3i 3.5-10x40 mm CDS Windplex scope. Now it's time to break in the barrel and see what it can do. Let me know what ya think.

I like it. Let us know how it shoots.

Worked up a few hand loads checking velocity and pressure only. With a 200 gr xpb Barnes,42,43,&44 gr of lil gun I recorded 2742,2851,2869 fps. That's cooking. Factory loads with the 250 gr ftx produced 2396-2420 fps.

Smokin'......... Now for some range reports.
