[QUOTE="WYO300RUM, post: 1765917, member: 32631"] I had a TC Encore barrel made by MGM. 27 in. Full bull stainless . With integral muzzle brake. Spiral fluted later to remove 6 oz... Very happy with it. I have other TC Encore barrels. 28 in. Hunters in 6.5 Creed and 243. 26 in 308. And the dreaded 20 inch in 460 S&W... I bought it used . Put a 3x9x40 Leupold on it that had lying around. 7 months later still have not shot it. I've heard they are not pleasant to shoot (20 in.). I was thinking of having a muzzle brake installed but considering on another MGM barrel and get their full length 27 in. With integral or threaded brake. One to get Mike length/weight and less recoil . MGM prefers 450 Bushmaster over 460 I'm sure you were their test. I already have a S&W 460 XVR 8 in. . Why I wanted to stay with 460. JE, did you finish your 28 in. Build yet and if so what velocities are you getting. Did you brake it ? Thanks ! [/QUOTE]
