That’s a super nice encore ^^. I think a lot of guys built the heavy built bolt actions from the get go because they can be pushed harder/faster since they have more barrel to do so. With that comes a weight penalty though and it seems some are reverting back to the break action guns due to their less weight/handleability. And I contemplate it myself considering I have an encore frame. Smokeless guns are cool guns and I would safely say nothing hits like they do when it comes to killing critters…a 275gr lighter jacketed bullet at 3,000fps sounds like you hitting the side of a drum with a hammer on a good still evening when you shoot a deer. Held safe and in vitals they don’t tend to take a step.
