I'm looking for some input regarding a suppressor on a 308 Encore with 15" barrel. I plan on only using it to shoot deer ar relativly close range. I also have a 20" barrel from the custom shop but would prefer to thread the shorter barrel as it would be of ideal length with my HVT. I'm a cherry when it comes to the the Encores ability to stabilize a subsonic load should I go that route.
 
Re: suppressed 308 Encore

I put a can on my 15" barrel but I have to put a butt stock on it , it works awsome (!!you have to form 1 it as a SBR!!)

my barrel is made by BullBerry , its a full bull 1/10 twist and it does stabilize the 178gr Amax's at sub sonic.

Gonna go do it. I'm gettin around the sbr situation by welding a flash hider with bilock to the barrel to give me an extra inch. Too bad I can't do the same thing to my pecker.
 
Re: suppressed 308 Encore

I had some contender barrels threaded recently. I'm going to send the SBR paperwork off soon. Already have the receiver engraved.

Anyway, The top one is a .30-30 that I had done just to mess around with. It really needs a shoulder stock with the Omega 30 on there.

I don't really have anything to add, just wanted to post this pic again. :)
