T/C Encore

[dragman]

Picked one up for a light carry rifle. I haven't shot it yet gonna carry it for deer while i walk. what does everyone think about them??? this one is a 7mm.

 

[Good]

I also picked one up recently with 209/50 muzzleloader and 300 Win Mag switch barrels. I LOVE the ML but haven't shot the 300 yet. I heard it's brutal!

Looks like I have got myself into another addiction. these things are pretty fun. hasn't shown me anything great yet in accuracy but it is fun.

 

[dkhunt14]

I have a contender with 6BR barrel and it shoots really good.

 

[Nimrod]

I shoot Encores in both rifle and pistol form, they are great fun. To shoot them accurately you must be consistent. My favorite rifle barrel is a .307 Winchester, I installed a .308 extractor and can shoot both cartridges in it interchangeably now. check out Mike Bellm too he has done a lot of work with the TC guns and there is some good info on his site.

[dragman]

I am looking for other barrels now this thing is fun! lol

 

[Gibbshooter43]

Considering the purchase of a 257 TCU but have no info on availability of dies, brass, or ammo. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it greatly.
