The Thompson Center Encore ProHunter Frame Assembly is built on the legendary Encore platform and delivers rugged reliability, precision fit and modular versatility, providing a solid foundation for a wide range of Encore barrels and configurations. The single-shot break-open design allows the shooter to interchange barrels from a wide variety of centerfire calibers and shotgun gauges to the renowned muzzleloader barrel with Speed Breech XT. This means one frame can accommodate hunting pursuits across multiple game species and seasons.
Thompson Center’s master gunmakers teamed up with LimbSaver to create the Flex Tech stock system designed to absorb shock and reduce harmful recoil and vibration, incorporating four synthetic recoil absorbing arches that operate similar to a leaf spring to create a crush zone and allow the stock to compress during the recoil process. The Pro Hunter rifle frame features a swing hammer safety that allows for easy access to the hammer spur, the Speed Breech quick release breech plug that can be easily removed by rotating it only 90 degrees, and the Pro Hunter extractor that can be rotated left or right for easy access to the Speed Breech.
The TC Encore ProHunter frame assembly serves as the foundation of one of the most versatile firearm platforms ever created, with its single-shot, break-open design allowing shooters to swap barrels across a wide range of calibers and gauges—from centerfire rifle and shotgun to muzzleloader with Speed Breech XT. Whether you’re setting up a dedicated muzzleloader or building a multi-barrel hunting system, this frame delivers the adaptability serious hunters demand.
