This is my new Thompson Center Stainless Encore Pro Hunter in .308, with a 15" fluted barrel I picked up yesterday. I'm anxious to light it up. With only 1" less barrel than a lot of 16" .308 rifles, it will be interesting to see what kind of velocity I'll be getting from some of the medium and slower burning powders. My favorite .308 handload has always been 42.0 grains of Varget under the 168 Gr. Sierra Matchking bullet. So I'll most likely start with that.

I haven't decided on optics and mounts yet. I've got some time before it starts cooling off here, and I'll have quite a few new guns to try out when it does.
