Encore problems with WSMs

Wildcat · 01-04-2008, 07:34 PM

Ive come across an article regarding problems with shooting Encores chambered for the Winchester Short Magnums.

300 WSM - Winchester Short Magnum cartridges and rifles. Why no short magnums in the TC Encore or Ruger #1? WSM, WSSM, Short Ultra Mags, are for short action bolt guns.

Im not entirely sure I fully understand the problem here.

Doesn anybody else have any input on this issue.

If the WSM is a problem for the Encore that would be very disappointing.

I kinda had plans for that thing

I think the issue is marketability. They offer a wide range of caliburs and you probably get a barrel chambered for that round.
