Nice. I love my Encore like another child.

That's what I am looking at with the 209 allowance.

Careful. It’s an addiction.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I know.  I have been looking for a while and already have my eye on three or four barrels.  The other nice part about the 209 allowance is the possibility of getting my kids out in dryer warmer weather without having to worry about cold wet kids 10-15 minutes in.

Good on you for getting your kids out there rain or shine

I have two knight disc extremes all I need to do is screw in the bare primer breech plugs and the appropriate bolts which I have and head to the range.
I still might use my custom side lock with the fast twist barrel and #11 percussion caps.  :)

I griped and complained about the new proposals. People griped back and told me I didn't know what I was talking about. I listened and took it to heart. Currently shopping for a .50 cal barrel for my Encore.  I love shooting that thing too much to not at least explore that option.

LOL....I get it...MOST RESPECT TO YOU!!!    Gladly buy you a beer or soda!!   Someone who has the sack to admit he disagreed but then jumped on the bandwagon as it passed by instead of walking in the dust.   Me...I think technology is going to be a huge hindrance to what we all love.....will gladly walk in the dust on some things....but not everything.

Musket caps were difficult to find when I wanted them so I bought 400, guess I'll be waiting a while to make the cross over.

Now then, get your equipment—your quiver and bow—and go out to the open country to hunt some wild game for me.  Gen. 27:3

My traditions vortex Northwest magnum will not shoot the modern primers. Apparently the firing pin is not designed for modern primers. O well I've never had a miss fire yet with musket caps.
