There are reasons that today's top professional hunters, like Jim Shockey, shoot only Thompson/Center Pro Hunter rifles and muzzleloaders; accuracy, quality and reliability are just a few. They stake their careers on hunting success and they choose the one gun that performs every time. The Pro Hunter family of products is the finest crafted interchangeable system available - choose the caliber you desire, with the removal of two screws and one pin; simply create a "new" gun by replacing the barrel with another caliber. Pistol, centerfire rifle, muzzleloader or shotgun...Encore® Pro Hunter™ is truly the gun for all seasons.
Pro Hunter’s™ stainless steel 28" barrel delivers the highest muzzle velocity available while the precision fluting helps to strengthen the barrel, dissipate heat and balance the rifle for natural handling. T/C employs the latest CNC technology to machine both the target crown and the chamber on every Pro Hunter™ barrel. To assure the ultimate in accuracy every Pro Hunter™ barrel is machine shot at 100 yards by a Master Gunmaker.
The Pro Hunter™ muzzleloader will forever change how we think about muzzleloading rifles. The Pro Hunter™ muzzleloader features the same Swing Hammer® design, engraved receiver and precision barrel as the Pro Hunter™ rifle. Like todays high tech muzzleloaders, the Omega and Encore, it’s simple to operate, easy to load and quick to clean. Until now, it took longer to remove and clean the breech plug than it did to clean the barrel.
| WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ENCORE AND PRO HUNTER? | ||
| FEATURES | ENCORE | PRO HUNTER |
| HAMMER | FIXED SPUR HAMMER | SWING HAMMER |
| STOCK | COMPOSITE / WALNUT | FLEXTECH |
| BARREL | 24" AND 26" | 28" FLUTED |
| RECEIVER | SINGLE CHEVRON | SINGLE CHEVRON ENGRAVED |
| BREECH SYSTEM | UNIVERAL PLUG | SPEED BREECH / SPEED BREECH XT |
| RAMROD | STANDARD ALUMINUM | POWER ROD |
The Speed Breech™ is a quick release breech plug (patent-pending) that can be removed by rotating it only 90 degrees. No longer do you have to struggle with seized breech plugs or the time-consuming chore of making eleven rotations to remove your breech plug. Three gas compression rings on the face of the breech plug eliminates 95% of harmful blowback. “Speed Breech™…90° and out”
This solid one-piece extractor features an all-steel design, and can be rotated to either the left or right hand side to allow easy access to the Speed Breech™. The Pro Hunter™ muzzleloader does not have to be disassembled to remove the breech plug and there are no screws to loosen to pivot the extractor. Simply rotate the extractor to one side or the other. There is a plunger on the bottom of the lug that locks the extractor into place when it is rotated to its upright position. This assures perfect alignment with the Speed Breech™. The extractor also operates as a safety mechanism to assure the Speed Breech™ is locked into position. If the Speed Breech™ is not locked into position the extractor will not drop into the machined recess of the breech plug and will prevent the gun from closing.
All T/C muzzleloading rifles come with the patented feature QLA® (Quick Load Accurizor). QLA® allows the hunter or shooter to quickly and easily load their rifle by incorporating a false muzzle design into the barrel of the rifle. Accuracy is enhanced through the QLA® design by aligning the projectile with the rifling. The projectile is supported while the hunter or shooter is loading his rifle to assure the projectile is started exactly perpendicular with the rifling. The secret behind QLA® is only removing the rifling (.0005 of material) while maintaining the groove depth of the bore. Other “muzzle guiding systems” only aid in starting your projectile; they do not work as a true false muzzle and cannot deliver the enhanced accuracy of the QLA® design.
The patented pivoting handle is integral with the solid aluminum ramrod. This convenient low profile handle eliminates the need for a palm saver or T-handle and makes loading your rifle quicker and less painful. The Power Rod® allows the hunter to load his rifle in the field more uniformly by applying the same seating pressure shot after shot. Hunters using the Powder Rod® can now enjoy the same accuracy they get at the range using a range rod.
Recoil reduction technology that features a soft touch comb that takes the bite out of muzzle rise, while the smooth surface finish allows the cheek to slide forward during firing. Over molded finger grooves in the stock and rubber grill pads in the forend give you firm control of the rifle in both wet and dry conditions. Sing swivel studs are molded into the stock and forend to eliminate the possibility of pulling out. T/C’s FlexTech® system is just one of the many advancements given to the new Pro Hunter™.
The fluted barrel design has two important attributes that increase the accuracy of the firearm. The fluted barrel has increased stiffness and also allows for an increase in the cooling rate of the barrel.
The Encore Rimfire Barrels feature a unique mono block design, which requires no alteration to the frame assembly. Available in 22 LR and 17 HMR.
No. 4862 Encore® Pro Hunter™, 28" barrel, Stainless, Fluted. No Sights; Drilled and Tapped for Scope Mounts. 17 HMR, Applicable Forends: 7569/7571

Pro Hunter™ features a rotating hammer design called the “Swing Hammer”® that can be off-set to allow easy access to the hammer spur. This innovative design is patent-pending and addresses the concern about reaching the hammer when the rifle is scoped. The hammer is keyed to allow the spur to be placed in the center, left hand or right hand positions.

FlexTech® Recoil System
When compared with a standard Encore stock system, the new FlexTech® stock system produces 43% less felt recoil.
Thompson/Center is proud to introduce the Pro Hunter XT Weather Shield series of muzzleloaders. Utilizing Weather Shield technology, Thompson Center was able to take the hottest muzzleloader on the market today and make it more affordable then ever. Featuring Speed Breech XT and the FlexTech® System, the Pro Hunter XT is the finest choice for any hunter. As with all Pro Hunters the Weather Shield barrels and frames will also interchange with stainless and blued components of any Pro Hunter or Encore platform rifle or muzzleloader.
SPEED BREECH XT™
Like the Speed Breech™, the XT™ reduces fouling by 95%, needs no cleaning, never seizes, and now it can be removed by hand. No tools, no mess, 90° and out...
ENERGY BURNERS™
A rubber coil of arcs, that when placed at precise location in the stock achieves the maximum amount of shock absorption. More than any other stock innovation on the market.
