i have one. just picked it up last week. very nice, 28" fluted barrel, adjustable hammer, ok trigger, could be lighter.
camo dip well done. i bought this and sold the regular encore i bought. this one balances better with the long barrel and is lighter. has a limbsaver pad and the stock feels great.
mine was $699...not too bad, a little high for what you get, i felt, but that's the going rate.
