No doubt Encores have limitations...you either live with them or buy something else. As I said apparently alot of people like them.
Not being able to chamber an Ultra Mag or a Weatherby round is hardly a serious limitation. I've not found either one of them to fulfill any gun need I have.
I don't own an Encore, but i've owned numerous Nuber 1's in the past. I like single shots, but i hate the weight of those #1's...
If someone gave me an ultra mag tomorrow, i would never even use it. I haven't found anything i can't kill with a "non" ultra mag... And i hate all the recoil and muzzle blast of those things!
Three of my brothers have Encores, and they like them...
