Eagle View Arms (EVA) would like to share our newest product with the readers of this forum. After several years of development, I am proud to release the EVA Model E-T Encore Barrel Stub Kit. This product is designed for the gunsmiths that have not been able to easily provide custom barrels for their Encore shooters, or for the shooter that has the equipment and knowledge to make their own barrels. Of course there in nothing wrong with a shooter taking a stub to his/her gunsmith and having a new barrel made.
The stub is machined from a monolithic block of heat treated 4140 steel. There is no welding done on the stub and none required to finish a barrel. If you can thread and chamber a barrel for a bolt action rifle, you can certainly make a great barrel for an Encore.
Each Stub kit has all the parts needed for a barrel except for the actual barrel blank it's self. There is the stub, in the white, two EVA locking bolts, the EVA Evertite extractor, that does not require an separate leaf spring. These extractors will not fit a TC barrel nor will a TC extractor work in the stub. It was the key element in allowing us to build the stub from a single piece of steel.
I will post more images as I get a new 6MM Dasher chambered up from the same stub batch that are available to you. I make a new barrel with every batch of stubs that we release, but I do not make any barrels for anyone else. Please support your favorite or local Gunsmith. 
More information is available at www.eagleviewarms.com.

If you look at this stub, it's designed to be a pressed fit, not threaded. Last I saw, for contender's there's a press fit stub and a threaded style available. Threaded with jam nut would yield a stub capable of switch-out or interchangeable barrels provided the case family is the same for the extractor to work on each barrel made for it. OR, have several extractors on hand for varying case families. You'd have to have a good machinist or gunsmith capable to time the barrels for front sight alignment with the 4 holes in the rear, and the holes for forend attachment.
Garage Gunsmith? You talking a hobbyist attempting the challenge?

Doyle; I have not looked at the Savage barrel nut and have dropped the smooth tenon that we tried, too many people have a hard time getting a press fit which we did recommend silver soldering in, or at lease use a strong solder like Force-44 from Brownells. Besides if you could only use one stub you would not buy any more and that kind of defeats my goal of selling lots of stubs.LOL
The thread on the Encore stub is 13/64x20 UNEF B2. It is a very easy setup to do. I will post some pictures of how I do it some time this weekend, so stay tuned.

Taking a Break
As of this morning Eagle View Arms is taking a break until early summer 2016. I need some rest and some time to figure out how to make these stubs and parts and some money too. Last quotes I got from the contract shop was that they wanted more than I feel that I can charge with out the final touches. We'll be back with new ideas and methods this coming summer.
Thank you
Lowell
