Tungsten Super Shot changed what a .410 can do in the turkey woods, and Thompson Center built this Encore ProHunter Turkey to take full advantage of it. The 24 inch matte blued barrel wears a 3 inch chamber and an extended Xtra Full turkey choke that keeps pellets packed tight on birds that hang up at the edge of your comfort zone. Adjustable fiber optic sights come standard so you can dial your point of impact to match your pattern, and the barrel is drilled and tapped for a scope base if you would rather run a red dot, which is how a lot of TSS hunters set up these days.
At roughly 6.25 pounds with a compact overall profile, this is the kind of gun you can carry up a ridge before daylight without thinking twice. The break action keeps things simple and quiet, and the single shot format tends to make you a better turkey hunter anyway. One well placed load of TSS through that Xtra Full choke does the job, and the light recoil of a .410 means new hunters and smaller framed folks can pattern it all afternoon without getting beat up. The whole gun is dressed in Mossy Oak Original Bottomland, a pattern that has been fooling longbeards for decades, and the synthetic FlexTech style stock shrugs off rain, mud, and the general abuse of turkey season.
Here is the part that separates this from every other single shot turkey gun on the rack. This is a true Encore ProHunter, which means the barrel swaps off the frame and you can drop on centerfire rifle, muzzleloader, or other shotgun barrels from the Encore lineup. Buy it as your dedicated .410 turkey rig this spring, then turn the same frame into a deer rifle or smokepole come fall. Between the light weight, the tight patterning barrel, and the swap ability of the platform, this Encore ProHunter Turkey earns its spot in the truck for a lot more than one season.
With modern TSS loads, absolutely. Tungsten Super Shot is far denser than lead, so a 3 inch .410 shell packed with No. 9 TSS carries plenty of pellet energy and pattern density for clean kills at ranges that used to be 12 gauge territory. Pair those loads with the extended Xtra Full choke on this Encore and pattern it before season, and you will be surprised what this little bore can do.
Yes. The 24 inch barrel comes drilled and tapped for a scope base, so mounting a red dot or low power optic is a simple job. A lot of TSS hunters go this route since those ultra tight patterns leave little room for aiming error, though the included adjustable fiber optic sights work great if you prefer to keep it simple.
They do. This is built on the Encore ProHunter platform, so the frame accepts the full range of Encore barrels including centerfire rifle, muzzleloader, and other shotgun options. That means your turkey gun can become a deer rifle in the fall just by swapping barrels, which is a big part of why the Encore system has such a loyal following.
The gun runs right around 6.25 pounds with a compact overall length, which makes it a pleasure on long walks and easy to maneuver in a blind or shouldered against a tree. Recoil from .410 turkey loads is mild too, so it is a comfortable setup for younger hunters and anyone who wants to spend real time patterning at the bench.
