Thompson Center Encore ProHunter Barrel Features The Thompson Center Encore ProHunter barrel is chambered in .204 Ruger and machined from stainless steel to resist the elements while providing consistent accuracy on varmints and predators. Fluting along its 26 length is designed to create the strongest lightweight barrel possible shaving weight without giving up rigidity. A 1-in-10 twist rate stabilizes .204 Ruger bullets for flat accurate shooting at extended ranges. The threaded 5/8x24 muzzle allows hunters to add a muzzle brake or suppressor to manage recoil and report. Every ProHunter barrel is factory test fired at 100 yards to verify accuracy before leaving the plant giving shooters confidence in its performance from the first outing. This barrel is built exclusively for Encore series rifles and will not fit Contender or G2 Contender frames so verifying receiver compatibility is essential before purchase. No additional gunsmithing is required to install the barrel on a compatible Encore frame. The Thompson Center Encore ProHunter barrel in .204 Ruger is for sale at GrabAGun for Encore owners looking to expand into flat-shooting varmint hunting.
