Hello my name is Dale I'm from S.E. Georgia, (Appling County). I've a been viewing this wedsite several years now and started handgung hunting last year. I purchased an Encore in 7mm-08 in 2007, and started pistol hunting, well I missed a nice 8pt on opening day but I redeemed myself by taking a doe @ 75 yds and a spike buck 125 yds by the end of the season. I'm hooked for life!!
