The Thompson Center Encore 45-70 Government 26" stainless steel barrel is a straight-swap upgrade for your Encore rifle frame, letting you add a powerful, versatile cartridge to your modular shooting platform without buying a complete new rifle. If you already run an Encore and want to shoot the hard-hitting 45-70—whether for hunting big game, handloading experimentation, or just adding another caliber to your arsenal—this Pro Hunter barrel gives you that flexibility with genuine accuracy backing it up.
Built from stainless steel, the barrel resists rust and corrosion in wet hunting conditions and long-term storage, while its fluted profile is engineered to maximize rigidity without unnecessary weight. Thompson Center factory test-fires every Pro Hunter barrel at 100 yards before it ships, so you're getting a barrel that's already proven to shoot. Assembly is straightforward—no gunsmithing required—and the barrel threads directly onto your Encore receiver with the standard 5/8-24 thread pitch.
The 26-inch length is the classic choice for rifle accuracy and velocity, balancing sight radius with practical handling. Keep in mind this barrel fits only Thompson Center Encore-series frames; it will not work on Contender or G2 Contender guns. If you're a multi-caliber rifle builder or a hunter who likes to tailor one frame to different hunting situations, this is a solid, purpose-built way to expand what your Encore can do.
