This is the serialized foundation of one of the most versatile firearm systems ever built. The Encore ProHunter rifle frame assembly comes with the stainless steel receiver, FlexTech buttstock, and forend, then leaves the barrel choice up to you. Because the frame is the registered component, you buy it once and add barrels down the road, meaning a single receiver can cover deer season, target range days, and everything in between without needing a separate gun for each.
The break-open, single-shot action is the whole story here. Pop the hinge pin, swap the barrel and forend, and you've changed calibers in minutes. The lineup runs from centerfire rifle rounds to shotgun gauges and the well-known .50 caliber muzzleloader barrel with Speed Breech XT, so one frame really does open the door to a whole collection. The receiver is bead-blasted stainless steel for weather resistance, and the trigger, sear, firing pin, and bushing all wear a nitride coating that fights corrosion and holds up to hard use over the years.
The overmolded FlexTech composite stock and forend do more than look tough. Paired with the LimbSaver AirTech recoil pad, compression arches, and Energy Burners, the setup is rated to cut felt recoil by up to 70 percent. That's a big deal when you're running heavier magnum barrels. Sticky rubber gripping panels and a soft cheekpiece round out the package for a solid, comfortable hold in any weather.
A few thoughtful touches make daily handling easier too. The hammer spur rotates to the left or right for lefties and righties alike, and centerfire rifle barrels come threaded so you can add a suppressor or muzzle brake. Longtime Encore fans have been waiting a while for new production frames to hit shelves again, and this one carries the same reputation for reliability and accuracy that built the platform's following. Just remember barrels are sold separately, so plan your first chambering when you order.
No, this assembly includes the stainless steel frame, FlexTech buttstock, and forend only. Barrels are sold separately, which is exactly what makes the platform so flexible. You pick the caliber or gauge you want first, then add more barrels to the same frame over time.
This frame accepts the wide range of Encore ProHunter interchangeable barrels, covering centerfire rifle calibers, shotgun gauges, and the .50 caliber muzzleloader barrel with Speed Breech XT. Swapping is as simple as removing the hinge pin and changing the barrel and forend. That's the whole appeal of running one Encore receiver for multiple setups.
Yes. The keyed, rotating hammer spur can be offset to the left or right, so lefties and righties both get easy access to the hammer. It's one of the small design touches that makes the Encore comfortable to run either way.
Thompson/Center rates the FlexTech stock combined with the LimbSaver AirTech pad, compression arches, and Energy Burners to reduce felt recoil by up to 70 percent. Field testing backs up that the system genuinely tames punishing loads. That makes heavier magnum barrels much more pleasant to shoot all day.
