Thompson Center Prohunter Ml Bbl Fs 50Cal.50 Caliber

The Thompson Center ProHunter ML barrel in 50 caliber gives you a straight swap option for your Encore or ProHunter platform muzzleloader. If you already own a Thompson Center Encore or ProHunter frame, this extra barrel lets you move between calibers or simply have a backup without buying another complete rifle. It's 28 inches long with a full stock design, built to the same standards you expect from Thompson Center's muzzleloading lineup.

This is purpose-built for black powder hunters who want flexibility. Swap barrels between seasons, keep one setup for range time and another for the field, or build out a multi-caliber platform without duplicating the expensive parts. The 50 caliber chambering is the workhorse of modern muzzleloading—accurate, proven, and widely supported by ammunition and projectile manufacturers. The full stock provides the cheek weld and control you need for consistent shot placement at hunting distances.

Thompson Center's modular Encore/ProHunter system is built on the idea that serious shooters shouldn't be locked into one configuration. This barrel represents that philosophy: quality manufacture, no surprises, and the ability to adapt your platform to whatever hunting or range situation you're facing.
