Hey Guys,

Shot with a TC Encore with 295 Powerbelt and 3-777 pellets. He ran app 50 yards and crashed. I'm hooked !! :-D

The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on. He took a face from the ancient gallery and he walked on down the hall.

Thanks.  He really is special to me because I took him on my property that I have been trying to manage. It was the 3rd time I have seen him and the first time for a good shot.

The 3-777 pellet load is the only one I have tried. It was reccomended by the shop where I purchased my gun. The best I have grouped was 1.5" at 100 yards....which is fine for me. I have not had the load under the chrono yet, so I'm not sure the FPS. The recoil is fine when hunting. Maybe a tad tough when sighting in the scope though. I am used to shooting 3.5" shells at ducks, and I don't think it is nearly that bad.
