The Thompson Center Encore Turkey delivers precision turkey hunting performance with its interchangeable barrel system and specialized turkey configuration. This single-shot break-action shotgun combines the proven Encore platform with a 24-inch barrel optimized for 20-gauge 3-inch magnum shells, providing hunters with the versatility and accuracy needed for successful spring gobbler seasons.
What Makes This Different
The Encore's interchangeable barrel system sets it apart from traditional single-shot shotguns, allowing hunters to swap between different gauges and calibers on the same frame.
