Thompson Center ProHunter Barrel Features The Thompson Center ProHunter Barrel is machined from stainless steel and fluted along its 26 length a process that removes material to cut weight while maintaining the rigidity needed for consistent accuracy. The stainless construction resists corrosion in wet or humid hunting conditions better than standard blued steel making it a dependable choice for field use. A 1:10 twist rate is matched to common .30-06 Springfield bullet weights for stable flight and consistent accuracy at hunting ranges. Every barrel is test fired by the factory at 100 yards before it leaves the plant verifying that each unit meets accuracy standards out of the box. A 5/8x24 threaded muzzle gives shooters the option to add a muzzle brake or suppressor without additional gunsmithing extending the barrel s versatility for different hunting and shooting applications. Designed specifically for Encore series rifles this barrel will not fit Contender or G2 Contender frames so shooters should confirm their platform before ordering. Installation requires no gunsmithing letting an Encore owner swap calibers or refresh an aging barrel in minutes. This stainless fluted threaded barrel is available for sale at GrabAGun for Encore ProHunter owners looking to add a .30-06 option to their interchangeable barrel rifle system.
