I have been using the regular ShockWave sabots in 300gr. and 250gr. with Shockey's Gold Stick powder in my Encore and they seem to work great. I have friends that tried the superglide sabots and they did not group as well but that may be just a gun preference thing. I was using Pyrodex pellets but they were super dirty. The Shockey's is much cleaner burning, no sulfur smell, and much easier to clean up. When they say you can use water and a brush to clean it, they mean it.
