I have just purchasd a T/C Encore . It' s a nice gun and I like how short it is. The action is solid. I haven' t shot it yet but I' ll be shooting it soon. The only thing that I didn' t like is the clearance between the hammer and the scope. I had to get a hammer spur to extend the hammer. It can get pretty cold hunting up here and when hunting with gloves , I wouldn' t be able to pull the hammer back without the spur. Other then that I realy like the gun.
