I've had one two-three years now with muzzel loaderand just now I'm trying a rifle barrel. At the rangeI realized something, i don't like the encore with rifle barrel, theforearm is too shortcompared to barrel length.The gun is too weight forward for good off hand shooting, the trigger on mine is ok butmy freindsneeds work. Accuracy was ok for the first sight in but I'll need to experence more shots with her to really decide,one group was .5 inch, another was 3 inch, just needs more work but for 22-250 I wouldaccept .5 routinely. By the way it was the one I bought andsold to a friend.
