Spaniel, it was immature...Sorry. Read the thread again, very slowly. I didn't say I would sue you for your false claim. Read very carefully so you can pass the quiz LOL I too have shot with the makers (they will shoot with you, if you are considering the gun---small outfit) No one who shoots that gun will say that they foul "a little less" than the Encore. I've shot both. Its about the ignition system. TRUCE, MAN! If you can, we should get together since you are in Michigan too. You can teach me how to shoot at incredible distances, and I can show you how to clean a special $1600 muzzleloader in less than 2 minutes. Then, we can pound some really cold beers and discuss something non-controversial, like politics or religion! I would even buy the beer for the unknown witness lurking in the woods watching you and the deer 338 yards from you!
Seriously, if you would like to shoot my gun or share info, let me know. No hard feelings! Donn
