Just wondering if anybody on here shoots an Encore in .308 or .300 win mag? What kind of groups are you getting at 100 yds?
I put a lot of money and time into a Encore Pro Hunter last year for a coyote rifle. Fun little gun...but it was not very accurate. Even with a $600 MGM custom .223 barrel and a $150+ trigger job (2 1/2 lbs)...it would never shoot under 1 1/2" at 100yrds. I know...fine for hunting...but since all my rifles I own shoot under MOA, its hard to accept anything else.
I ended up buying a Tikka T3 Lite in .243 and having the barrel chopped down to 16 1/2". This has been a yote busting,easy to pack all day, tack driving rifle.
Here is a pic of the Encore Pro Hunter with 17" MGM barrel...please ignore the MK 4 scope...had it laying around while waiting for the Bushnell scope I would use on it.
Take care,Stan
