SMF Trader System - Detailed Feedback
Detailed Comment Two Bears,
I'm new to all this and I need some helpful advice.  If this isn't the standard way to ask for help, well, I'm sorry but I don't know how to post yet.
Recently I bought an Encore pro hunter in a 30-06 with a stainless barrel.  The guy told me a standard encore scope base wouldn't fit, that I'd have to use a Leupold.  The screws the Leupold came with were too big and I wound up having to use tiny screws to attach the base to the barrel.  Then, the other day, I took it to the range for the first time and shot standard Remington PSP 165 grain bullets through it.  Now I've shot several 30-06s in the past and none of them have the muzzle rise this one does - I'd say it rose about 75-80 degrees, almost straight up.  I don't know if there's a problem, but it sure seems like there is.  I really didn't expect anything like this from Thompson Center.  I think the gun may be dangerous to shoot, maybe too much pressure.

From what I've read on the site, I wondered if they gave me a Bergara barrel since an extruded barrel might cause a lot of pressure ( if I got it right).  Can you help me please.  If you don't know then maybe you could  ask around for me.  I thank you in advance for your help and the benefit of your experience.
Yours truly,
Dcomposer
