Welcome to the forum. I have no idea on accuracy, but you can sure expect it to be LOUD. :eek: Wear plugs and muffs....

Good luck with your new gun!

While not a T/C Encore I have worked with a 14" Savage Striker in .22-250. What a cantankerous monster. I bet I loaded and fired over 300 test rounds in that Handgun and the absolute best 5 shot 100 yard groups I was able to obtain were around the 1" mark. Now to some that may be OK, but this was destined to be a Varmint Handgun and I was not willing to settle for 1" groups. I ultimately traded it off and now use a Stainless-Steel Super 14 G2 T/C Contender in .223 Remington for my Varminting needs and am much happier with the accuracy.

Hopefully your Encore will work out better than the Savage Striker I had did.
