The Thompson Center ProHunter rifle barrel in 45-70 Government gives you genuine versatility from a single firearm platform. If you own a Thompson Center Encore or ProHunter frame, swapping in this 45-70 barrel lets you keep one receiver and hunt multiple game types simply by changing barrels—no need to own several complete rifles. The 45-70 Government is a proven lever-action cartridge that translates beautifully to single-shot precision, delivering substantial power for hunting medium to large game where shot placement matters.
This is a genuine Thompson Center barrel assembly, not an aftermarket knockoff. It's built to the same tolerances and quality as your original barrel, which means it'll headspace properly, shoot accurately, and maintain the reliability you expect from a premium firearm component. The 45-70 gives you knockdown power and effective range without the recoil extremes of some magnum rounds—making it a smart choice for hunters who want control and confidence in the field.
Swapping barrels on a Thompson Center Encore or ProHunter is straightforward: loosen the foregrip, slide the barrel out, drop the new one in, tighten up, and you're ready to shoot. It takes minutes. This setup is popular with hunters who work different terrain or seasons and want the efficiency and lower cost of a single receiver with interchangeable barrels, rather than buying and maintaining multiple rifles.
If you're looking to expand your Encore or ProHunter platform or need a replacement barrel, this Thompson Center piece delivers the fit, function, and accuracy your gun and your hunt deserve.
