RE: T7-BH209 Cmparison
frankly the whole energy thing is crap.... if you can kill elephant with a bow and arrow... what matters is a hole all the way through the critter...
Other than checking zero before the season I don't shoot much and so will keep using T7. Though the crud ring thing is worse with the new Encore I just got. Swabbing the barrel after the second shot is a requirement though with the Encore more so than with my Revolution II.
