I am thinking about putting together a low recoil, long range deer rig on an Encore frame that I can put a rifle scope on and hunt whitetail out to 350yards or so. I am thinking 6.5 Creedmoor or 260 Rem. but I wanted to get input from the forum. Anyone that has read my posts knows that most if my big game hunting is with the 358JDJ Contender or with revolvers. I was thinking about a flat shooting Contender barrel but If I am doing it I want the flattest shooter with good performance on deer I can get. I also want the heavier Encore for the lower recoil / rifle scope setup. What do you think?
Also I am not a big fan of brakes as I will probably use this gun in a box blind at times. I will brake if I must but would rather not.
