VTbowman Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Re: Encore MZ pistol I have the 15" factory Encore ML pistol, custom wood, and a Burris 3-9x32 scope on top. I shoot the 250g ShockWave sabots with 100g worth of Pyrodex pellets (2x50g) and achieve 1" to 1.25" groups at 100 yards. I should of tried loose powder to tailor my load but this combo gave me excellent results so I stuck with it. I was told back when I was 1st starting with it to start around 60g of loose powder and go from there. 240g to 250g sabots. Anything bigger and the recoil would be uncomfortable. Its ROCKS now. LOL Good Luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardwood_HD Posted April 5, 2007 Report Share Posted April 5, 2007 Re: Encore MZ pistol i think it would be fun to get an encore pistol in 20ga or 410 to rabbit hunt with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted April 5, 2007 Report Share Posted April 5, 2007 Re: Encore MZ pistol I made one from a 20" carbine barrel. I took a hacksaw to it then chucked it in the lathe and gave it a 11° crown then lapped the edges. I had a POC 2x Leupy laying around and I out it on top. I will replace it with one of my other handgun scopes one of these days. I ended up shooting 80 gr of 3f T7 and a 200 gr Dead Center. It will get your attention. Where in NM did you put in for?
