I have mine it's a 500 S&W 12" MGM ported full bull barrel on an Encore. With great looking wood. I like the one-shooters better because I don't worry about the 2nd shot. It makes me make that one shot "be the shot". I read so much about how to make the follow up shoot. And I don't go though as much ammo at the range. I really don't know why but I don't use as much as if I take my 45 BH. But the Encore has been a dream of mine for a long time and when the 500 came out I knew I was in love. Be for my love was a 45-70 14" SSK 'tender. But maybe in time there will be a new love come along but the 45-70 was for 25+ years. It's going to take something great to knock off the 500 as my 2nd # 1 love.
But don't we all love anything that goes BANG!!!
