I would be interested to know what you mean when you say this. I do not mean to ask this to start any argument. I am just interested what makes shooters think that an MK-85 is "old technology"??

Personally I believe they are as well made and designed as any MZ available on the market today. This is just an opinion of mine. However I believe they are about as simple as it gets for takedown.

This is just to create a discussion about what hunters think about MZ's.

Personally I am a real fan of the encore's. I have three frames and a bunch of barrels. I have tried 3 different MZ barrels without any real satisfaction. So I went back to my MK-85 and I bought a new Knight LRH. I can not see where the Encore or Omega has any real advantage over the MK-85 other than being able to save one or possibly two minutes in cleaning time. And personally I believe the Knight's to shoot better than the TC's. Just an opinion. Tom.
