Good deal?
I am considering the purchase of a T/C Encore 209x50 in stainless with a synthetic stock. A guy I know has one for sale because he is unhappy with the accuracy of the gun. He wants $375.00 for the gun with a Simmons 2.5x7 shotgun scope on it. I think the accuracy could be user error and I probably can work it out after reading different posts on the internet. Is this a good price for the gun? I have never researched it and just thought I might try my hand at muzzle loading if I can get into it for not a boat load of cash. Thanks.

RE: Good deal?
Assuming it is operator error, that's a good price for an encore, and the scope increases the value as well.

RE: Good deal?
That is a very good price for all of that. I think you are right, that it is operator error for the lack of accuracy...

RE: Good deal?
Kinda hard to go wrong, in that case.

RE: Good deal?
I would buy it too! Probably just need to work out the right load for it... all ML's are different, as in they like different powder / bullet weights, types, and combinations.It is not unheard ofthe same brand and model of ML's will like different combinations.

If you don't purchase the Encore I would like to. Please forward my e-mail to the guy that has it if you don't want it. Thanks so much. Mike

RE: Good deal?
Bought it this morning. I will try it out this weekend.

RE: Good deal?
Took the gun to the range this weekend. Started out with 100 grains pyrodex (2 pellets) using the TC Shockwave 300 grain sabot bullet. First 3 shots at 25 yards went through the same hole. Moved back to 50 yards and had the same results. The only thing I can figure is the guy I bought it from didn't clean it well or was using different bullets that the barrel didn't like. Either way, I got one hell of a deal for $375.00. Thanks for all the help. The loading and shooting advice from this board has been invaluable.

RE: Good deal?
Man, thats a tough break. 3 shots and only one hit the target[:@], I think you need to send me the gun and I will take care of it for you. :)lol.
All kidding aside sounds like you got a winner there. Good luck with it. |
