I will have to say that I have never tried a thumbhole stock on anything. I have shouldered them in the shops and really like the feel, but have never shot one at all. With a thumbhole stock how does it work with the hammer of an Encore? I don't think I have ever shouldered an Encore with a thumbhole stock.
Otherwise I am with Crubear with the high comb walnut stocks. I also have a couple of plastic stocks, but really prefer the walnut. I also have longer arms so the walnut fits me better.

I really like my laminated stocks.
I have several.
My original is my favorite,and is slightly thinner in the wrist area than the others.
It is from Boyds.
My newest lamis are Boyds also but are thicker through the wrist.
I like the shadow grey color better too,but I have both grey and Brown.
They have the same comb and basic shape and angle as factory wood stocks,with the benefit of laminated stability.
I've used them from 8-10 below to near 100 degrees in all kinds of precipitation with no problems.

I just got a M4 adjustable from Ed Browns, Love it.
I like that I can adjust the stock for summer shooting with a T-shirt and then adjust it for hunting with heaver clothing on.
Very comfortable, and looks awesome.
