My problem with the Encore was a tight spot in about the same spot as someone else had. Mid way down the barrel. You could see it when I loaded and I could feel it. Sent it back to the company and they said nothing wrong with it. Sent it back to me and it was still their. I also had a problem with rust in the breech area. Also when I tried to put a smokeless barrel (.30-06) on it I could never get it to group. I tried every way get ti to group. You know all the weird tricks with the foreend, but to no avail. Ended up sending the barrel back twice and then the whole gun. they ended up sending me a neew barrel and it still did the same thing. I ended up seelling the gun with both barrels for a loss. but ya know I never looked back. Once bitten thing!!!

See now you made me boor a bunch of guys with this silly store. One that has been told at different times in the past.
