Thompson/Center Triumph .50 Caliber Magnum Inline Muzzleloader Rifles
The easiest-handling .50 caliber magnum ever! With only 4 moving parts, the Triumph is a joy to shoot and a snap to clean -- no trigger removal, disassembly, or tools required. Its lightweight alloy receiver affords superior balance; the beautifully sculpted composite stock is capped by a Sims Limbsaver® recoil pad. The tip-up barrel with toggle lock provides fast access to the hand-removable Speed Breech XT™, the patent-pending breech plug that strongly resists seizing and fouling. Hammer block auto safety; uses hot 209 primer ignition. Includes aluminum ramrod. Barrel length: 28''. Overall length: 42''. Twist: 1 in 28''. Weight: 7 lbs.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 09MOPAR Best Shooting Gun I ever Shot
My wife bought the Triumph for me as a Christmas gift. Topped with a 2X7 Nikon Scope. After 10 shots, moved out to 75 yards. Two quick shots (within 35 seconds leaning on the tailgate), both bullets through one hole 1 inch above dead center in the bullseye. Hole was only slightly enlarged on one side. Moved out to 125 yards with just 1/4 inch of drop.
I have shot a lot of weapons, but I believe this is by far the finest shooting rifle I have ever shot. (Two 50 grain pyrex pellets and a Thompson 250 grain Shock Wave bullet.)

Rated 4 out of 5 by baldy547 should be 5 star but !!!!!!!
I like the gun alot, I shoot 50/50 trip. seven pellets 100gr. and 250gr. bonded superglides by T/C. three in the bullseye at 100 yrds. Also have a Leaupold 3-9x40 VX-1. Now the only thing I don't like is my cousin has an Encore, he can shoot it several times before cleaning it, my Triumph first time I load it everything goes down the barrel and seats nice, without cleaning it for the second shot I push everything in again and the ram rod stops 1/4" shorter than the first time. And gets worse as I go. So without cleaning it after every shot I don't get proper seatage(if that's even a word). the only diffrence is my cousin uses 100gr. of Pyrodex pellets and 250gr. Hornady SST hallow points. So if anyone thinks that could be the reason (the pellets)one burning dirtier than the other feel free to chime in please.

Rated 4 out of 5 by adamsvileDeerslayer love it
this is a good gun i shot 2 shots almost in the same hole at like 50 yards out of the box with iron sights about 1/2 inch of the speed breach works well have had no problems getting it out.The only thing that has happend that i did not like was i shot it and cleaned it and i think i was using water base cleaner and i stupidly did not dry the barral so a week later i looked down it and it looked like it was starting to rust but i cleaned it again and it came right out it might be that there is gust so much moister in the air it has rained hear like every day it seams like not sure what caused it to start to rust probly my fault but other than that it is a great gun i shoot a 100 grains of black Powder and a 250 super glide bullet made by tc

Rated 5 out of 5 by MossyoakinTN Outstanding Muzzleloader by Far
I bought the mossyoak stock Triumph and mounted a Nikon Omega mossyoak scope on it and it looks great!!! I was shooting 1 inch groups at 100 yards. I love the removeable breach plug that can be taken out by hand. Just make sure you put some anti-seize on the threads. I bought this gun in October and used it all season. I shot a doe at 80 yards and a buck at 100 yards using 3 pellets of triple 7 pellets and 250 grain Barnes EZ load sabots. Well worth the money!!!!!!

Now that the Encore is really hard to find, I have been looking at another gun. The only thing that turns me away from the Triumph is the Speed Breech XT. I like the idea, but I can see how dirt and other junk could get down into that space. Please let me know if this is something to worry about.Answers
A:
The way the speed breach xt is setup, it is very clean & easy to use.Top 1000 Contributor
A:
I have been using a Triumph for three years without any issues with the Speed Breech XT. I highly recommend it.Details:
i am looking for a gun. I like the Encore in that you can change barrels, but I like the Triumph, too. Where I hunt, you either can't use a rifle, or a deer would be too close to use a rifle. Both guns that I am looking at run about the same price. Please help.Answers
A:
I have an encore muzzleloader and like it, however if I was to recommend a muzzleloader today, I would recommend the triumph. It has several nice features that ease in the disassembly and cleaning process. The only reason to consider the encore is if you think you might want to buy different barrels and convert to single shot rifle or shotgun.A:
For what it's worth I have both a Pro Hunter and a Triump. The Pro Hunter is nice because it is very versitile. I like it because I can change barrels for deer, antelope and coyotes. However, I like the Triump for muzzel loading for the speed breech. It seems to work better on the Triump then it does on the Pro Hunter. For me $400 barrel and a $50 forend to switch from center fire to muzzelloader, vs. $500 for a whole new rifle wasn't worth it.Top 1000 Contributor
A:
If you already own a dependable center fire rifle, go with the Triumph. Why pay the extra cash for a single shot rifle to get the Encore? I own a Triumph and it shoots great and the only feature it doesn't have is the interchangable barrel.A:
You can buy a whole gun for the price of an Encore barrel. By the Triumph you will not be disapointed.Answers
A:
Yes, both Weathershield models will have a Stainless Steel Barrel. ThanksAnswers
A:
Many muzzleloaders are ambidextrious from the stand point that they don't have a bolt or ejection port to worry about. Often times, they do not have a seperate safety either. The Triumph is completely ambidextrious so there is not a right and left handed model, only one. The hammer is the default safety and the firing pin is designed not to move unless the hammer is cocked. You can reverse the hammer extender from right to left if you shot left handed.A:
The rifle is made for either right or left hand shooters. It comes with a hammer extension, just simply unscrew it and screw it in on the left side of the hammer. The rifle is made to accomodate either hand.Q:

I am looking for scope rings and bases for the triumph. Does the Omega and Encore ones fit this gun?
Answers
A:
Yes. My Leupold bases fit both my Pro Hunter and my Triump!A:
i am pretty sure about this you might want to make sure i think that all of tc guns use the same base except the slug barals for the oncore i think they tell you on tc main web sightAnswers
A:
Thompson Center recommends a sabot all the time. The power belts fit too loose in the barrel and the gases escape around the load, leaving you with sub par groups and inconsistent shots.Top 1000 Contributor
A:
I use three Triple Se7en pellets with a 250 grain saboted TC Shockwave bullet. This bullet is manufactured by Hornady and is the same bullet as the Hornady SST. You have many choices but it really depends on the game you're hunting and the ranges you anticipate shooting.A:
i use 100 grains of powder and a 250 super glide bullet made by tc i do not have a scope so i only shoot like 100 yards hope this helpedAnswers
A:
The difference is the action. The Omega is an inline but does not have a break open action. The Omega does not have the speed breech either, you have to use a breech plug wrench to get the breech out. The Triump also has the QLA which makes loading it easier, you don't have to use a bullet starter with the Triump. The break action makes it easier to clean and for placing the primer!A:
There are various visual and mechanical differences in the two guns mentioned. For the most part one is a break action (triumph) and the omega is a falling breech.Either in 50 caliber would be sufficient for Elk.
