Iron Sight Adjustment
Your Encore has been targeted before shipment, however, some additional
sight adjustment may be necessary to compensate for individual holding,
sighting, etc.
To guard against accidental discharge which may cause injury or death, be
sure that the Encore is unloaded and that the action is open when perform-
ing this operation.
All barrels with adjustable sights:
On these models, all windage and elevation adjustments are made on the
rear sight only. Elevate (turn counterclockwise) the top screw to compensate
for a low group or reverse the procedure to compensate for a high group.
Turning the windage screw counterclockwise moves the point of impact to
the left. Turning the windage adjustment clockwise moves your group to the
right.
Mounting a Scope on the Encore
The Thompson/Center Encore is factory drilled and tapped for
Thompson/Center’s mounting systems. When mounting any scope on the
Encore, follow the instructions which accompany the mounting system you
are using, and the instructions which accompany the scope. Those who are
unfamiliar with mounting scopes should contact a competent gunsmith for
assistance.
Make sure the Encore is unloaded, with the action open before adjust-
ing the rear sight or mounting a scope. An accidental discharge can
cause injur
y and/or death to the shooter and bystanders and damage to
pr
oper
ty.
