I'm looking @ a factory Encore 209x50 black powder pistol from Cabela's.
I have a $200 in credit and a new Burris 2x sitting on the shelf for it. I realize Encore triggers are not adjustable for weight of pull. I called Fox Ridge, they said I could send it and they would lighten it to a min of 3lbs for free. (sounds good) The gun is blued with wood for $480.
1. should I pay extra for a stainless reciever?
2. bullberry or virgin valley the way to go for future barrels or are factory barrels as good or very close to them. I've heard factory barrels can be rough.
3. what kind of groups should I expect with 777 powder and what is a good starting load.
4. what should I mount the burris with. (they make t-sob yet.?)
Help me out here. Thanks RP
