RE: T/C Encore
I picked one up last year in the 12 ga. camo version.I took 3 birds with it last year.I used the choke that was supplied with the gun.I patterned several different brands and shot sizes of shells. I was happiest with winchester 3"HV #6's.
The gun is great to tote around being so light,but it kicks like a mule with those 3" magnum turkey loads.I went and put a sims recoil pad on it and it helped tone down the kick some.
