I told this story before on this forum. My sons friend asked me to sight in his TC Encore. I said sure. I took it to the range with my two grandsons as they were going to shoot their ML’s. Well when it came to load the Encore my ramrod only went down about half way? My grandson wanted me to just shoot it. I said no way there something wrong. When I got home I found out the idiot never unloaded or shot his Encore in two years. Turns out there were three loads in the bbl including the one I put in. Naturally I chewed the kid out . One for not knowing there were two loads in the gun. I’m just glad the kid never saw a buck the year before as he may not be alive today. Plus I learned a lesson to NEVER take the word that the ML is unloaded. I also instructed the kid to put a notch on his ramrod so he can tell if there is s load in his gun in the future. Had I listened to my grandsons that rifle would have been like a pipe bomb and I probably would not be here today. Not to mention what could have happened to my grandsons as they were near me and I spared them from seeing their grandfather getting killed .
