Title: encore barrrel 12 ga.
Post by: Prohunter3509 on January 31, 2016, 04:28:00 PM
Just tried my new turkey barrel
Win.AA 5 shot best I could get at 40 yds. Was 45 hits
I am gonna buy a box of lbs. And see how that works.
I am hoping for around a hundred with good pattern around
Although the 45 was pretty even halo around.
If I have to go with different choke any of you guys
Ever fool with one and what choke u using. It's a 24 " barrel
And what kinda results yall getting
All help appreciated

Pure Gold .660 with Longbeard 6's in mine. I had good luck with Primos Jellyhead with Hevi 13 7's also. The Longbeards in #6 is my favorite now though. One caution, recoil is an eye opener. You'll see.  :drool:

I have had very good results with an Indian Creek .660 and Hevi-13 2oz of 6's. My Encore likes this choke and shell combo. I would expect 7's would shoot well too. I never tried lead in it.

Indian creek choke, hevi 7's or mag blend.  Great results.
