RE: most accurate single shot?
Now as far as Encores go I have never owned one but have seen many shot at the Gun club and I have never seen any outstanding groups by any of them and they were in all sort of configurations...custom..semi-custom with barrel or stock and their accuracy is nothing to write home about. Yet people rave about them so maybe I am seeing the rejects of the bunch. BTW I like Thompson Center products and have owned a number of contenders which were great handguns. If someone is getting 3" groups with a 1-v then something is seriously wrong...I see those things all the time in 220 swift and 243 that shoot incredible groups.
