So I was looking at some rifle barrels for Encore rifles and I came across some SSK barrels. I was kind of on the lookout for a .375 JDJ or .30-30 Win barrel as those are two I regret trading off. Anyway they had a 16" threaded .30 Carbine barrel with 1:7 twist.

Now I think this would be really fun to shoot suppressed with 110 grain bullets. Also it might be fun to use some 150 or 170 grain .30-30 bullets as subsonics. Anyway I'm just thinking out loud on this one.
