You will enjoy it very much... They are MOA shooters. If you have a choice I would get a Pro-Hunter or if you already have a Encore frame you could just get the PH muzzleloading barrel,,, these things shoot awesome and are sooo easy to clean with the speed breech. The standard Encores are nice also they just take a little long to clean,,, these guns feel like an old glove when shouldered, warm and fuzzy
Most Encores like to be loaded hot so try 3 777 pellets and a 250 bondedShockwave... this load will shoot 1" or less with most Encores. Some other loads you may want to try are: 3 Shockey's Gold Sticks and a 300 grain Nosler(my favorite),,, 110 grains of 2f 777 and a 260 Nosler,,, 3 777 pellets and a 290 Barnes TMZ, or 275 Parker BE. Swab between shots with the 777, don't with the Sockey's Gold... good luck!!
