I too am interested in having a ML barrel for my encore, but would like to see some stats on it - what has people been getting for muzzle speed and what was the load. I would like to see at least 1200-1300 with a 250-270 gr. bullet - what kind of load am I looking at out of a 15" barrel?

I have one acquaintance that shoots the aerolite powerbelt out of his cut down (16") barrel using 70gr. of powder - but that seems light to me?!?!
