The T/C Encores are priced to high as far as I'm concerned. I may buy one, but that doesn't mean I don't think I'm being riped off some.

They've sunk a ton into the advertizing blitz so the money has to come from somewhere. I really like the system and the new Prohunters are selling darn well, from what I see. The big problem is, I have the original style and Droptine's Prohunter has a much higher cool factor. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/help.gif" alt="" /> I must resist temptation!!

I think they are but I still bought 2. Everyone's in our pockets no matter where you go or what your buying nowadays.

Maybe if you look over at Huning Rifles you'll see why they have been trying to get the pricing up. S&W just bought T/C for $102 million.

I'd rather have an NEF Handi Rifle. Better looking and just as accurate.

Swamp..,

With you on that. T/C barrels cost as much as an entire Handi-Rifle. They are overpriced. Not only that, but the factory stock makes it one weird looking rifle to my eye.

And that is exactly why I have never purchased one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

Nope. You misread or I misspoke. My Contender is a safe queen until something I must have comes along ... it will then become trading material. Since S&W bought T/C look for prices to soar from 'overpriced' all the way up to 'outrageous'.

For the record, I consider T/C waaay over priced and Handi-rifles one helluva buy.

I believe S&W will improve T/C. I'm hoping the Encore is dropped in favor of a true rifle.

Handi Rifles SUCK compared to an Encore that is just plain hard cold fact. I don't agree with the high prices on encores but truth be told they are a great action to have and more versatile than anything on the market anywhere. The Handi rifle is just plain shi**y . You get what you pay for! The only thing they are even remotely good for is teaching a child, theat way if they screw it up who cares just throw it away.

Handi Rifles are pieces of junk. You get what you pay for.

Anybody I know that owns a Handi Rifle also drives a Dodge.
