Thompson Center coming back

[Hunter26]

Looking forward to seeing these again! I have several Encore pistol barrels and one rifle barrel. They're all shooters! Pic attached was a doe shot at 130 yards with 257 Roberts and 110gr AccuBond.

Very nice. Is that Ol' Georgia Jim furniture?

Sure is, good eye! He was great to work with.

 

[grry10]

If the Encore/ProHunter comes back I would like to use it to build a 260 Ack Imp.

Here's mine with the 375 Winchester barrel.

If you're interested in a TC Contender pistol in 35 Remington, let me know.

I’m interested some. What do you got Patrick?

 

[Ridge_Runner]

The very first high-powered rifle cartridge I ever shot with was out of a 243 Contender pistol, and then the same round out of an Encore out to 400 yards. Also blew up a tree with tannerite with it

contenders were made in 243? never heard of that, thought they were just 223 sized rimless cases and rimmed cartridges.

 

[Bruce Mc]

I have two of the first version of the contender, a 30-30 and a 44 Magnum with the shot choke on the barrel. I never had them updated to work with newer barrels. I killed a few quail with the 44 and javelin and coyotes with the 30-30. Perhaps they would be able to update them.

 

[SJB358]

The 30-30 would be pretty cool too.

Honestly was probably a blued encore now that I think about it.

 

[RL338]

A 7-08 would be a good one!

JD338

I worked with a guy , he liked his TC 7-08.

 

[Thebear_78]

I have a contender with several barrels and an encore with rifle and a 410 pistol and 338 pistol barrels. If I draw a cow tag anytime soon I might try that 338 federal on it.

I can look tonight when I get home, but I believe it's a TC Contender, 35 Rem, Pachmayr stocks.
I picked it up several years ago because I have 35 Rem in a few Marlin 336s, but I have never shot it or scoped it.

 

[FOTIS]

Nice!

Here you go. 35 Remington. It's got a few small scuffs and scratches, but that means you can hunt with it and not care.
@SJB358
Let me know if you have any interest.

[FNWhelen]

I have a 357 Max in both a 10 in T/C and a Dan Wesson. They both shot 358 180 grain rifle bullets good. Worked well on Sitka Blacktails.
Still working on my getting 25 posts and being off probation
