The Thompson/Center Encore® ProHunter™ FireStick™ brings modern convenience to the legendary Encore muzzleloading platform. Chambered in .50 caliber, this ProHunter uses the Federal FireStick™ ignition system, which keeps the powder charge contained in a pre-measured capsule for cleaner handling and consistent shot-to-shot performance.
At the heart of the rifle is a 28″ button-rifled stainless steel heavy barrel with precision fluting and a 1:24 twist. T/C’s Quick Load Accurizor™ counterbored muzzle is designed to simplify bullet seating while supporting consistent accuracy.
The Encore’s single-shot, break-open action also maintains the versatility that has made the platform popular for decades. Its interchangeable design allows compatible accessory barrels to be installed for different hunting applications, with accessory barrels sold separately.
A FlexTech™ stock incorporates compression arches and Energy Burners™ to help reduce felt recoil, while the patented Swing Hammer™ can be positioned for easier access when an optic is mounted. Nitride-treated internal components add corrosion resistance, an especially useful feature around muzzleloading propellants.
For hunters looking for the familiarity and versatility of the Encore platform paired with a streamlined FireStick ignition system, the Encore ProHunter FireStick offers a modern take on the .50 caliber muzzleloader.
