Default Got a T/C ProHunter What a big mistake!!!

I got a T/C Pro Hunter a few weeks back. What a big mistake.
It's bad enough that there are so many Green Mountain barrels for my Hawken and Renegade but now with the Pro hunter if you add in center fire barrels it's unreal. So many barrels and so little money. I should have known better than get a Pro hunter. But man I sure love the gun. It only took 4 shots to sight in and I took a deer with it first time out. It loves Blackhorn and Barnes T-Eze's . I guess there are some mistakes you just have to live with

No. Can't blame him on this one. I hear he's not dead though. Rumour has it he may be back in a few months.

I'm planning on getting a new pro hunter or endeavor in the next couple weeks. I'm wondering why the ph over the endeavor or if you just wanted the ph because of multiple barrel capability. I'm on the fence on this one.

I have a friend that has a pro hunter and I shot it a few times in order to make up my mind. After shooting it and getting a heck of a deal price wise I went with the Pro Hunter. I really am satisfied. I didn't get to shoot an Endeavor, so I don't know about it. I don't regret getting the Pro hunter though

Poor, poor Chet. Seems you have succumbed to the dreaded black powder virus and it has a possibility of transgressing into the certerfire realm. Once you've got that far you are beyond hope. My sympathy goes out to you and your family.

I had the opportunity to try the Pro Hunter and bought the Endeavor. It fits me better and the felt recoil is less for me ; maybe because it fits better.

Congratulations on ANOTHER RIFLE. You make me proud. Sounds like a real nice rifle. And I am glad that your happy with it. Now for some new barrels for that fancy rifle.

actually i was on his site today and someone asked what was the best ML on the market and he said the Pro Hunter was the best on the market. Why he didnt say Endeavor i dont know since he is on those commercials. Maybe he hasnt had the Endeavor long enough to give it the stamp of approval.

I bought a PH in .308 and just put an Endeavor .50 cal barrel on it. LOVE THIS GUN!
