The Encore 209x50 Magnum configuration is clearly marked "ENCORE 209x50 MAGNUM" and "THOMPSON/CENTER ARMS ROCHESTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE." It combines a 26-inch stainless barrel with a matte stainless receiver for a rugged, weather-resistant build made in the United States.
This inline, break-open, single-shot design uses 209 primer ignition and is rated for magnum-capable loads. The 1:28 twist rate supports modern .50 caliber muzzleloading performance, and capacity is one round.
The receiver accepts interchangeable Encore barrels, allowing the platform to be reconfigured by swapping barrels. A trigger-guard actuated barrel release makes opening the action straightforward for loading and unloading.
Sighting equipment includes iron sights with an adjustable rear blade featuring a green fiber-optic insert. An installed scope rail provides a ready mounting surface for optics if desired.
The synthetic stock in Hardwoods camo offers a 14.25-inch length of pull, textured grip panels, sling swivel studs, and a ventilated recoil pad. An exposed hammer with a swing-style extension aids positive manipulation.
