will a black powder forarm fit a regular rifle barrel on a encore rifle or will I have to buy another forarm?

You'll have to buy another one. The BP forearm is releived for the ramrod.

The profile of my 209x50 barrel is different than the profile of my 24" tapered barrels, so in this case the BP forearm won't work very well, if at all. The ML barrel is fatter, with no taper.

I used one on mine, however it would not fit to start with. However I was planning on fully bedding the forearm---so I did so. And I used the longer screws. Tom.
