Strutnbps,

I ultimately say to each his own, but why on earth would you buy a 10 guage and then look for low power shells? That is like buying a truck with the biggest motor the company makes and then putting a gas saving chip in it!

Just for the record, I personally witnessed a turkey taken at 61 yards with a 3.5" turkey load with a scoped 12 guage. Plenty of gun for a turkey.

Well, just like all of my other guns, I would like to shoot the 10ga. at paper and stuff. Yes, I have a 12ga. 3.5'' and know what they are capable of. I've just always wanted a 10ga. and once you get a "want" itch, its hard to scratch it with anything else.

As for trucks, I know plenty of guys who program their computers for play, then go back to the factory settings when they hit the pavement to save gas.

Everything you said is so true. We are such a sad bunch! I have the encore itch right now. Actually I've had it for a while now. I'm resisting but of course no man is perfect!

Yes, the Encore's are some fine guns. I just can't see spending that much money for a single shot, then having to pay that much for the extra barrels and still have the SAME gun. LoL.....Some people like only having one gun for everything. I am the opposite, I like building the collection!
