i just got it n the mail. i had just a slight, but noticeable play in the barrel. i installed the new pin and no more wiggle. the 1x was the ticket. maybe that will eliminate the flyer i get. cannot wait to shoot again so i can see how it does

Okie Hog said:i had a very sorry experience with my Encore. Finally got most of the bugs worked out but the barrel still has side play if it is not closed briskly.
shrimpy50 said:i want to know more about all the upgrades. the new Bellm pin is just a start. i would like to make it as good as possible. i still havent shot mine with the new pin. i will tomorrow, though. coincedently, my buddy has an Encore, and it had so much play it wasnt even funny. he went and had a 2x pin installed. At 85 yards, he went from well over 2 inch groups to 3 shots touching. i can only hope mine will do that well. i am taking it to the Adirondacks for the early bear season Saturday. it is dropping into the 30's at night there. cant wait
