I'm potentially (likely) buying an Encore Pro Hunter that has a 7mm BR (bench rest) barrel on it. I will have no use for a barrel in that caliber and am wondering if there is any interest out there to buy or trade.
I'd be interested in trades for 7mm-08, .308 or .223
If you're interested please hit me up. Feel free to make an offer.

I am pretty sure you can find someone to buy it. The big challenge is brass. If you can get the brass with the gun, then go for it. Someone will buy the barrel or trade for it.

That being said, the 7BR in a single shot will give you almost 7-08 performance. You can load the heavier bullets longer and a 24 or 26 barrel on that Encore will still give you a gun that is about the same overall length as a 20-22" barreled bolt gun. If it were me, I wouldn't get rid of the barrel at all.

Update - I did purchase the rifle!

HandgunHTR, thanks for your insight. I have very little knowledge of the 7 BM. Unfortunately, I'm at a point where money matters and I would rather sell the barrel and put it towards a 20"ish 7mm-08 barrel to make it a more compact unit.

So with that, it's a 26" stainless TC Custom barrel. I plan on probably keeping the optics mount.
