When I first got my Encore, I thought I would put a first rate scope on it. I put a Burris Fullfield scope on it. Well after a day at the range the Encore distroyed the scope. I sent it back. They asked me if I had put it on a ML and then told me they were not meant to be on a ML. Still not understanding how things work with different type guns, I put a Bushnell Elite 3200 on next. Well the same thing happened. The vibrations and sonic harmonics are different for shotguns/ML, centerfire rifles, airguns, and rimfire guns.

A good friend had the same problem and told me me about different scopes made for these different guns. I ended up getting a Bushnell Banner shotgun/ML scope for the Encore and all was good again. Luckily this lesson didn't cost me any money.
