ON NOVEMBER 17,2007 I VENTURED OUT ON A HUNT WITH MY THOMPSON/CENTER ENCORE.

THIS WOULD BE MY FIRST HUNT WITH A MUZZLE LOADER. NEEDLESS TO SAY I WASN'T EXPECTING TO GET A BUCK ON THE FIRST HUNT TRYING OUT THE GUN.

THAT EVENING A 9PT BUCK CAME OUT AT ABOUT 120 YRDS. IT WAS GETTING TO BE LATE IN THE EVENING AND I KNEW I ONLY HAD ONE CHANCE AT A SHOT AND IT NEEDED TO BE GOOD. I WAS ABLE TO TAKE THE 176LB BUCK WITH NO PROBLEM.

IT WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE WITH THE MUZZLE LOADER AND IT CERTAINLY GAINED MY RESPECT. IT HAS BEEN PROVEN TO BE EASY TO USE AND VERY EFFECTIVE. THIS COULD NOT HAVE BEEN A BETTER HUNT.
