TC guns are REALLY expensive here, regardless of the caliber or version.

There not cheap hear Shocked . I had to think about getting the T/C for a while, it cost twice as much as my traditions.. Hopefully it's Worth the extra cost

I've got an Encore with two barrels (so far); a .223 and a .50 ML. The muzzle loader is getting 1.5" groups at 100 yds and the .223 did a .25" group recently. I'm fairly pleased! Thinking about a 7mm Mag or .300 H&H Mag sometime in the future.

This one is the FX model ( fixed barrel muzzle loader) I thought about getting one that I could interchange the barrel's but at almost $300 more I went with the FX. We all no I'm cheap Very Happy

shrpshtrjoe:

I just bought that same Muzzleloader.

What type of rings and base did you install?

I am going to install a Weaver 1-piece mount (No. 9899) and a pair of Warne low or medium rings, whichever set gets the Omega 3-9x40mm 300 BDC scope closest to the barrel without touching.

Welcome aboard Archer...grab a beer mate and pull up a stump...Joe shouldn't be too far away.

That TC FX is one beautiful gun...damn I wish I could afford one, but they are super expensive out here in Australia.

Cheers, Vince

shrpshtrjoe:

Good deal! How did she shoot?

What load did you finally go with?

I'm going to try 2 IMR White Hots (Pellets) and a 250 Grain T/C Shock Wave Super Glide. Haven't decided on which 209 primer to use yet.

Howdy Vince! Thanks!
