My Encore really likes the following load:
Winchester 209 primers
3 pyrodex 50/50 pellets
220 gr. " Dead Center" bullet manufactured by Precision Rifle Bullet

This load consistently groups 1 m.o.a. or better with 5 shots.
I run a pre-moistened cleaning patch(made by T/C) through the barrel after every 5 shot string.
What more can I ask for from this rifle/load?
