PeacemakerSolutions,
I can't believe it's been 9 years since I posted in this forum LOL time flies.
Anyway, my Encore 209X50 likes 2 Triple 7 pellets and the Barnes 250 gr FB Spit-Fire T-EZ's, using the Triple-7 209 primers. It's a reliable 3" at 50 yds with my old eyes.
I bought some of the Hornady 290 gr Bore Drivers, but haven't shot them yet. They get good reviews.
Hope this helps, mechanicuss out.
