Title: TC Encore muzzleloader
Post by: j_h_nimrod on December 09, 2011, 12:38:28 PM: I have a TC Encore that is currently set up as a centerfire rifle but was considering getting the muzzleloader barrel for it to get into ML, which I have not attempted yet.

My question is, does anyone have anything good, bad or ugly to say about it and can the 209 ignition system on this be converted to regular caps to be legal in WA?

I may just build a Hawken from a kit which I have always wanted to do anyway.
