I am shooting 130 grains of 777 pellets and 245 grain Barnes Spitfire bullets in my Encore. I would be interested to know what powder load anyone else uses with this bullet and what their trajectories are at 50, 100, 150 and 200 yards.

100 grains of 777 (2 50-grain pellets) and 250-grain PTX bullets. Never shot it over 125 yards and it's about an 1" high at 100.

I have always shot 120gr. of loose 777 and a 250gr. barnes expander in my 50 cal. encore. I have it 1" high at 100 yards. This combo is very accurate in my encore, and the expander is second to none on deer performance.
