[QUOTE="ENCORE, post: 1854338, member: 33046"] I started in 1973 with a Huntsman, which I could have cared less for. Moved on to percussion rifles, both the original CVA (prior to BPI) and TC. Took many a mid-west whitetail with percussion rifles. I've shot flints, just never cared for them. When Knight first came out, I pondered around, then finally purchased an MK85. Really liked the change and again, took more than my share of whitetails with that rifle. However, once TC came out with the Encore, that rifle suited me perfectly. Easy to modify, accurate as all get out. Not sure how many Encore platform rifles I've owned, but it was quite a few. A couple nephews were given rifles when I replaced them with newer models. Gave up the Encore platform rifles, mostly because I wanted more of what they couldn't give me. Range. I had been completely infected with long range shooting. I purchased a BP Xpress from Ultimate Firearms, which I shot until I'd gotten all that was possible from that rifle, so then there was just one more step left.... complete custom. Not everyone will get bitten by the long range bug, but those who do, love it. For the record: 68 years young :) [/QUOTE]
