I'm new to the Encore world and don't know much about it. I do know that one of the guys I shoot with got a barrel from this place and it shoots very well. http://www.matchgrademachine.com/chamberings_public.php I think it took about a month or so to get the barrel. Hope this helps. May...

I STRONGLEY suggest post number 22. Best of luck to you. Be safe. Shoot often. Have fun.

XP, that sounds like fun. I would be happy if I could find a place where I could practice at 300 yds. once a week. Do any of the major gun makers offer anthing like the XP-100 that can still be bought new or is that a custom built only sort of thing. I know I like the custom guns I saw in...

BC thanks for the advice. I will give it a try. That will allow me to return the borrowed forend. I hate to borrow things. XP, I see what you are saying. I remember similar to that when I was learning to shoot a rifle. I noticed the guns in your photos had a brake on them. If I can find...

XP, I will continue to use the rifle scope. It is working very well for me. The artices and posts you made in other threads have been very helpfull for me getting started with this type of firearm. The only thing I had a problem with is that when I shoot a rifle I have the same cheek weld...

Hello everyone. I just got a Encore Pro Hunter Pistol. I took it to the range today and shot it from a bench at 100 yds. It shoots very well. I think this bench rest pistol thing may be addictive. I made a few minor modifications to a bench rest and used a rear bag made from the leg cut out...

XP, I read some of your articles and looked at some of your photos in other posts. They are VERY impressive. I plan on trying a Nikon Buckmaster 6X18 power rifle scope on the Encore tomorrow at the range. Does this seem like it might work on a Encore that is chambered for 223. It does not...

XP thanks for the reply. I can see where the Encore could easily take smaller game with the 223 and much larger game with the larger calibers. I am just using this one to punch holes in paper. I have BFR's and S&W 500's and enjoy shooting them. The Encore is different. It is like long...

Thanks for the help. I took it to the range this evening to break the barrel in. It shoots great. I will put another forearm on it tomorrow and shoot it from a bench rest. I think this thing will shoot less than 1MOA at 100 yds. I'm impressed. UMC, this one is chambered for 223 Rem. I...

Hello everyone, I have a question about the Encore Pro Hunter Pistol. I need to know if the Barrels from the Pro Hunter series pistols will interchange with the other Encore frames. I'm new to the Encore world and would like to order another barrel. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

We all expected this. If there is a bright side to this it would have to be that 2nd ammendment rights have gained a lot of strength in the past two years with the help of Chicago and DC. Some parts of the law mentioned above may not stand up in court. I think they are just trying to see how...

I agree with what is being said about not infringing 2A. I just think we should direct our energy at the responsible people. That is where the effort needs to be directed. I doubt that our Democrat controlled State legislature is working to change that law. I wish they were. She is the...

What am I missing?? The news article said that Stokes County had declared a state of emergency. That includes King, NC. I live in rural NC. I don't think a Sheriff or Police Chief would stay on the job very long if they disarmed the citizens. The police Chief is correct. If a state of...

I never did either. I don't need $4.00 per cup coffee. But... I will be going to SBucks two times a week as long as this is their position on my 2nd ammendment rights. It takes courage to stand up to bullies especially in this economy when their business is off from previous levells. I will...

I think it is obvious that Gura did not need or want the NRA medaling in McDonald v Chicago. He did well with DC v Heller in spite of the NRA. I saw on the GOA site that they had also filled a brief in McDonald v Chicago. Does anyone know or care to speculate if Gura wanted The GOA to get...
