I have an Encore, used for special MZ seasons for long range stuff.....

Never had an issue with it but then I know how to load things too.....

But back to the I'm hunting moose where Grizz are... um we hunted how many years with a 30-30 and or MZ rifle, and a pistol for backup. Moved up to a 338-06 last fall just to try something new, but will be carrying the MZ again when I can get it to shoot like I want it to.

Grizz issues will get you if you are scared. But have a firearm, and a GOOD head, and you'll likely be just fine.

We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....
