I had SSK make me a 300 whisper encore barrel 26 inches long. I love shooting paper and hunting deer with it. Now that I am loading subsonic for it, I want to get Jones to build me a suppressor also. I just couldn't stand that my pal Riverguide has a suppressor and I don't.
So, you encore and bolt gun guys please help me. Remember, I shoot lots of supersonic loads also. Is there a barrel length that would be fine for both supersonic and subsonic loads. Or should I just order another barrel thats a shorty and put the suppressor on that one.
Last year I hunted and killed deer with both supersonic 150 Nos BT and subsonic 225 outlaws. I never changed the scope setting from my supersonic settings but know the bullet drop on the subsonics from the many rounds shot at the range. I hunt in the woods and 100 yards is my maximum range but all deer killed this year were under 50 yards which is about normal where I hunt.
So what do you folks think or should I just get Jones to another shorter barrel for subsonics?
Riverguide, I come home in late June. We will have to play with the Whispers. I want to check out that fancy scale you bought.
