I am interested in getting opinions on an Encore 12" BBL in 480 Ruger.  Anyone own or shoot one before?  How is the accuracy and recoil?  Thanks for any input.  Im guessing these are pretty good as I dont seeany for sale.  Thanks again

I don't have a .480 Ruger, but I do have a 12" barrel in the .454 Casull.  Recoil is definitely manageable with it and I've heard that the .480 Ruger has a gentler recoil.  Accuracy is very good with my barrel, some loads keeping it under an inch at 100 yds, I've posted some 50 yd groups below, I can't believe the .480 would do any worse with some good load development, good luck!
