encore rifle
My wife has a fairly new Encore in 243. Although Im not done working up loads for it, so far Im very pleased with its and she loves it. After I test loads with it I give her the rifle and the extra loads I dont use. She banged a 24 gong at 300 meters from a setting position with an average of a little better than 50% for 15 rounds. Not bad for a girl shooting in a pretty steady 5-7 mph crossing wind (I own a windmeter). Shes was hot with it at 200 meters on a 16 gong (9 of 10 shots) the last time we were out 3 weeks ago. Shes had 3 shooting sessions with it so far, I think by next antelope season shes going to be death with it.
