RE: Which Encore Pistol?
lovethebigguns, if you're going to hunt in indiana with the encore pistol you need to check the hunting regulations before you buy a barrel chambered in a bottleneck cartridge. the last i knew indiana didn't allow bottleneck centerfire cartridges even in a pistol configuration.

RE: Which Encore Pistol?
I checked, the only restrictions are a minimum on which calibers you can use and a minimum pistol barrel length.
We've been hunting withRemington XP100's and Contenders for several years now. I have some friends that hunt with Encores also.
WhatI hate is that I can hunt with an Encore Pistolchambered in the 270 Win but I can't hunt with aWinchester Model 94 44 Magnum!
They just have a blanket law of no centerfire rifles of any kind.Another weird thing is that if I put a rifle stockin my Encorepistol barrel then it becomes illegal.
I appreciate your concern though!!
Thanks,
Scottie
