T/C Encore primer extractor
Does anyone shoot the Encore muzzleloader without the primer extractor that is built in to the barrel? It needs to be removed before the breech plug can be taken out and I think it is more trouble than it's worth. I would think the gun can work just as well if one leaves it off the barrel, but I was wondering if anyone feels the same way about it as I do. I know that T/C makes an aftermarket extractor that flips down out of the way for breech plug removal, but I don't think the extractor makes primer removal too much easier to warrant purchasing it. Just wondering what others think?
