[QUOTE="durak, post: 565431, member: 34244"] I had a friend that had a 300 RUM in his Encore - It shot great until his father loaded some "special" cartridges for it. He lost his right eye when the locking lugs failed due to the pressure spike and exploded. The company that made the barrel for him went out of business. It was a sad story. I've had an Encore in a 7 MAG and a 6mm Cheatah (6mm-7mag), I continued to shoot both barrels, but at lower velocity loads. I would definitely advise against a 338 Edge in an Encore - plus, you'd have a hard time finding any one willing to build the barrel. that's my 2 cents..... [/QUOTE]
