I have a TC Encore that I have used for muzzleloading season. I also have a 45-70 gov. barrel for it. I like the gun, however will not use it for ,muzzleloading anymore. The reason is, cause it is hard to clean it inside the break open area and no matter how hard I try , I dont get it all. The TC Impact is much easier to clean. I have had it cleaned by a guns smith twice now . Once I couldnt even get the gun to open, the next time it just would not fire. I have heard they have week springs for the fireing pins too.

But the fruits of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,faithfulness, Gentleness and self control. Against such things there is no law. Galations 5: 22&23
