well I will add this, my TC encore shot like crap, tried so many combo's of bullets and powders it was insane, sent it back to TC> they too said BAD barrel, and gave me a new one, sent it back to me with a 2 inch group at 50 yards and said this is way better!
I ended up at a show and ran into Greg Ritz, and told him about my gun, he had me send it back again, and got it back with another 2 inch group test target??
which IMO SUCKS
I had 5 different scopes on this gun, a ray of mounts and bases by the end I had 5 different factory barrels on it, gun was shot by me and many other PRO class shooter( a few that build custom rifles for a living)
I without lying had about a 800+ rounds thru the above and could never get gun to shoot well consistently, was like a ?? , no one could figure out
TC eventually GAVE me a new gun
and that one shot SO so, in my opinion, and I ended up selling the gun to someone that wanted the receiver !!
I;m NOT saying this is the norm for TC guns,as I have seen many shot awesome

but MY experience with mine and the help I got from TC< was far from good.

the above took about 3 yrs in all before they replaced it with a different gun, and I spend hundreds of $$$ out of my pocket TRYING to get it to perform as it should have!

so, my vote wouldn't be for a TC gun here LOL

and again I am NOT bashing them, I am just saying what issue's I had, and seen many other brands shoot as well or better for less $$$
