I've been harassing Thompson Center on the socials  about bringing out a 28 gauge G2 or Encore barrel. I told them, yet again, today that a 24" barrel in 28 gauge would be the perfect spring gobbler barrel. They responded that one will be coming  :happy0064: here's hoping that's true.

Good on you TScott! I'm hoping all manufacturers figure out the 28 gauge is an awesome subgauge turkey round when matched with TSS and a good choke tube.

Great Job I agree that would make a sweet turkey gun. I just hope its for the Encore also.
