Down here out behind the pole barn in a popup blind I'll use the Encore with a .460 S&W magnum barrel. I have a couple of 275 gr Barnes monolithic loads from last year but may end up using Hornady 300 gr magnum bullets because I found a box and will have plenty to practice with. I won't hunt with a rifle unless I have the opportunity to run it through several practice sessions before heading afield.
If I get a chance to hunt the UP probably Encore with 6.5 Creedmoor barrel or Ruger No. 1 7 x 57.
