[QUOTE="Rosebud, post: 3038289, member: 118066"] I've shot encores, stronger version frame of the contender. Loaded with a 30-06. Wasn't a lot of fun to shoot, but it never flew up and bit me. Sounds like he wasn't used to shooting hand guns that would recoil and held it with a loose grip. Bet it was fun to watch. I love seeing the outdoor writers get surprised by a gun they are unsure about. I hunted for quite a while with a encore handgun with a14 inch barrel in 7-08. Used 120 nosler ballistic tips. Heck of a muzzle blast. Takes a lot of concentration to shoot them well. Arthritis in my wrist has me shooting the .357 ,.223 and .22 LR now. At 75 to 80 yards the .357 is a flat out killer. I can hit further but that is my max yardage on deer. [/QUOTE]
