Know the contender is good. Like to have an inline muzzleloader. My thought is to go with this and have the versatility of barrel changeouts with some different and neat calibers. Any thoughts?

I have an encore 209 x 50 . last muzzleloader i'll ever buy. i wouldnt have another. i want a 308 barrel and i know where one is just haven't got it yet. you can go to virgin valley guns website and see just what they have for them. great guns.

I just sent my Encore to Virgin Valley Guns for a trigger job has anyone had any experience with this company I hope they do good work

I have never had any work done by them but i bought a hammer ext. from them. great quality. quick service.
They make some great looking stuff but expensive.

I have an encore 209X50 and love it. Costs an arm and a leg but worth every limb. I shoot a Barns expander (250 gr.) sabot in front of 3 pyrodex pellets (150 grs.total). I killed a pronghorn buck and a whitetail doe with it last year. The slug had more the effect of a high velocity rifle bullet of those animals than what I have been used to with a regular muzzleloader projectile.
