RE: Problems with sized brass from 2 different rifles
I would say you didn't get it full lenght resized or case lenght is to long for the ruger, just keep that brass for the encore and buy new for theruger.
tip
keep brass separate and try not to full lenght resize, just neck size, the brass will last longer and most of the time accuracy will increase.
the best way of keeping brass separte is to use different brands
