Guys,
I am thinking about getting into muzzleloading, but I have a few questions. Does anyone have any experience with the Thompson Center Encore? Thumbs up or down? Also, at the end of the day when you didn't get a shot, how do you unload? It takes a lot of effort to clean one of those suckers, I would hate to have to spend that much time cleaning just because I had to shoot the rifle to unload it. If you pull the breach plug and push it out is the powder ruined? I think there is a lot of grease in the threads of the breach plug that could get into the powder. Sorry for all of the questions, but I would rather ask you guys then most of the sporting goods sales guys.
