Thompson Center
The Thompson Center 8140R Encore barrel in 204 Ruger gives your interchangeable rifle system a specialized setup for varmint and predator hunting. Measuring 26 inches and chambered in the flat-shooting 204 Ruger cartridge, this stainless steel barrel swaps onto any Encore frame without gunsmithing—one of the key advantages of owning a Thompson Center Encore rifle. The Pro Hunter line pairs aggressive fluting with stainless construction to deliver a barrel that's both strong and lightweight, a crucial balance when you're covering ground or setting up for extended shooting sessions.
Accuracy out of the box matters when you're hunting varmints or testing loads at distance. Every Pro Hunter barrel leaves Thompson Center's factory test-fired at 100 yards, so you're getting a known performer before it ever reaches your gun cabinet. The stainless finish stands up to wet conditions and corrosive cleaning solvents—a real asset if you're hunting in unpredictable weather or if you shoot frequently and clean hard.
The 5/8-24 thread spec is standard for Encore barrels and mates directly to your existing frame. Whether you're building a dedicated varmint rig, expanding a multi-barrel Encore setup, or switching calibers seasonally, this barrel lets you do it fast. Just confirm your Encore frame is compatible (this barrel will not fit Contender or G2 Contender platforms) and you're ready to go.
