Got my new T/C Pro Hunter FX. 26" weather shield barrel I put a one piece integrated base/ring on and mounted a 3-9 Leupold . I'm going to use the BalckHorn 209 Powder with this one and see how it does . Hopefully I will be able to sight it in next weekend

Oh man..
Thats one beautiful gun Joe!
Yah like Vince, I also want one..
TC guns are REALLY expensive here, regardless of the caliber or version.

Cheers, Vince |
There not cheap hear . 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.

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.

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!
