Can't speak for the pistol but I got a 22-250 in rifle and it isn;t a bul barrel. 3 rounds and you gotta take a break as it will start spraying them as it heat the barrel and you gotta let it cool down.

just shot my 12.5 inch encore in .308 for the first time this weekend- wow, it was a ton of fun. it jumps about a foot in the air, but getting back on target with a single shot is not a priority so i don't mind. i am no lightweight, but the recoil might be sort of hard to handle if you are not use to it--i have no idea how hunters hunt with a smith and wesson 500. anyway i plan on using my encore for hogs and whitetails- not sure about anything bigger.

I shoot a Contender . I have a 22 , 223 , 7-30 waters and 44 mag barrels for it . Shot a doe with the 7-30 waters a few years back . That's a necked down 30-30 cartridge with a 7 mm pistol bullet . The 44 mag I have is the Hunter barrel and it's ported . It is loud . I said it is LOUD !

I used an Encore in 270 for hunting this year, along with several other handguns. I don't care for the factory grips because I can hardly reach the trigger. I just got a set of Pachmyar grips and what a difference. The Encore is also a heavy gun and carrying one can be a task I took this antelope and deer with the 270 this fall
