I'm curious to know if the idea of free floating a break action rifle is possible or feasable? If so, how is it done? Thanks for all the help in advance.
For the Encore you can use something called a "hanger bar".
If the front and rear sights are mounted on the barrel, accuracy should be quite good.
there is nothing a .35 can do, that a 06, 30-30 and even a .308 cant
Well, you're thinking of Handis in conventional terms, can't do that. Just to touch on a few things: tightness of lock-up is between the hinge and the face of the receiver combined with the action lock. I have one that I had to solder a .003" shim into the hinge hook to get a firm lock. Rearward pressure from the fore-end has no effect, an excess can actually cause problems.
I heard they have discontinued the barrel program, and will soon stop making the guns at all.I'm getting a H&R handi rifle in .444. I want to aquire the .35 Whelen barrel as well.
