If you shoot enough different muzzleloaders after awhile you can hold one and know if it is of good quality or not. When I pick up my ProHunter I can "feel " the difference. Some of you are probably laughing at that statement but some of you know what I mean. I'll leave it at that
I agee with you here, there is a lot of quality in these guns. I love mine.

As to Grouses reply to my statement he never said a piece of sh**. BUt I quote one of his posts about the Encore.
"As far as a Muzzleloader it's low end for sure. The T/C Triumph or a Knight Disc Elite/Extremewould be a much better choice as a Muzzleloader only."
So I am sorry for a miss quote of Grouse45.

Yep, as a Muzzleloader only thats true. The Encore being short and fairly light has been a great carry gun and excellent on a quad or utv for transporting. It was a sad day when mine got stolen.

Jim Shockey was asked on his website if he could pick any ML what would be the one he would pick. He said that the best on the market was the TC PH. I ll take his "quote" instead.

If it makes you feel any better, I was foolish enough to make the same mistake-twice....Glad I did. I must have gotten lucky and gotten good ones too. I'm very pleased with them, With or without Mr. Shockeys approval.

Trying to be brief and not steal this thread.... the GM_LRH barrel is a great barrel.... The 50 cal barrel would be my choice because there is a huge selection of conicals and/or sabot out there that will shoot great from the barrel. I shoot 90 grains T7-3f, a .125x.510 shot card and a .503/460 grain Bull Shop from mine... that will get just about anything out there - if I do my job...
