Lastdeer/elk season I used the 350 grainFPB in my Encore. Did not kill a deer with that Encore but took three good hogs with it-bang flops all. My three deer were killed with my cheap old CVA StagHorn and the excellent 240 grain .430 bullet thati have used for many years. Two of the deeri took last year were badly shot and some tracking wasrequired in order to recover them.
