LOOKING TO BUY A NEW MUZZELOADER, NEED HELP!!!

I am looking at buying a new muzzeloader and I am not sure what to get. I looked at a TC Encore Pro Hunter today and just love it but do not love the price, in the $700 range. Also looked at the Omega, just seem to like the crack barrel better. Thought I would post on here to get some help from some people who have these guns. Thanks for any help..

If you can afford the encore I would get that. You can switch barrels to make it a more complete gun. If your only wanting a ml I would hands down get an Omega. They are selling the realtree thumbhole stock and stainless barrel for 399.99$ around here, cheaper for some other models.

Omegas are swwet guns, very hard to top in my opinion. Ask about them down in the muzzelloader forums and see the responses you get. Never heard a bad thing about them.

Look at the Omega with a black stock and barrel. Those are very reasonably priced.

I'd prefer the Encore over my Omega, but the cost difference wasn't worth it to me....and I really like my Omega. grin.gif

Wal Mart sells the TC Omega.

Hard to beat, not only for the price, but also the performance, IMO.

My Walmart has the Omega all black with a thumbhole stock on sale for 250.00$ It is basically the same gun I shoot, except I personally like the realtree stock and stainless barrel. If you like the all black though this is an absolute steal

Life is short, buy the one you want. If your like me deer are your one passion ( besides the wife ). I know guys that spend a lot more and get a lot less.

I have an Encore in all RT hardwoods. Great shooting gun! But, I'd have to agree with AJ. If I had it to do over I'd definitely get the Savage. It shoots smokeless powder which means much less cleaning issues. I believe it also offers better velocities as compared to 777 or pyrodex. Maybe you could ask AJ to talk about it a little. It also has the Accu trigger which some don't like, however it's much more adjustable than other muzzle loader triggers except maybe the Knights. TC triggers are not adjustable at all except for overtravel and of course a gun smith.
