Thompson Center Encore Prohunter XT Turkey Shotgun 20ga 3" Chamber 24" Barrel Mossy Oak Bottomland Stock$900.00
Availability: In Stock
The Thompson Center Encore Prohunter XT Turkey Shotgun is a 12-gauge single-shot platform built for hunters who want one gun to handle multiple seasons. Unlike traditional turkey shotguns locked into a single purpose, the Encore's interchangeable barrel system means you can switch from shotgun to rifle to muzzleloader with the same receiver — a real advantage if you hunt turkeys in spring, deer in fall, and want flexibility year-round. The 24-inch barrel and 3-inch chamber give you the capacity for modern turkey loads, while the Mossy Oak Bottomland synthetic stock blends into the woods and handles wet conditions better than wood.
The gun is engineered around practical field use. Fiber optic adjustable sights come drilled and tapped into the receiver, so you can aim without gadgets if you prefer iron sights or add an optic if that fits your style. The overmolded grip panels keep your purchase firm even when your hands are cold or damp — a real consideration on a spring morning. A LimbSaver AirTech recoil pad absorbs the bite of a 12-gauge, and the Flex Tech stock is built to handle the punishment of serious hunting.
The swing hammer design lets you offset the hammer spur left or right, making the gun genuinely ambidextrous whether you're right- or left-handed. Single-shot means one shot to count, which focuses your discipline. The Nitride-coated trigger and sear are corrosion-resistant and reliable. Interchangeable chokes let you pattern the gun for your favorite turkey loads and adjust if you switch ammunition or hunting situations.
This is a workhorse, not a trophy gun — a straightforward single-shot that does the job and gives you flexibility beyond turkey season if your hunting portfolio demands it.
