Encore 20 ga slug accuracy
« on: July 18, 2008, 04:29:31 PM »
I would like to know what kind of slug's your encore barrel's like..@ 100 yds and beyond..I put an Encore together 20 ga SS pro Hunter barrel with a Nikon Omega . Since slug's start @13.00 a box I need all the help I can get. Very interested in the 3" slugs or maybe the SST 250 gr.   Thanks All Drop

Best out of my Encore 20 was Federal Expanders and they shot about 3" groups at 100 yds. Terminal performance on deer very good!

Lightfields shot 5 shots into almost the same hole at 60 yds.
