The Thompson Center Encore ProHunter Turkey in 12 gauge (brand part no. 6020R) is a single-shot, break-open turkey gun with a 24-inch barrel and a 3-inch chamber. Thompson Center finishes the receiver and barrel in Moss Green Cerakote and wraps the Flex Tech stock in Mossy Oak Original Bottomland camo, so the gun disappears at the edge of a field. An Xtra Full choke tube tightens patterns, and fiber optic adjustable sights make it easier to pick a gobbler’s head out of the brush. The receiver is drilled and tapped for a scope. It is a compact, maneuverable gun that is easy to shoulder in a blind or against a tree.

Key Specifications

• Gauge is 12, the most versatile choice for turkey loads.
• The chamber is 3 inches, so it handles standard and magnum turkey shells.
• The barrel is 24 inches, short enough to maneuver in a blind and long enough for a tight pattern.
• An Xtra Full choke tube comes with the gun to tighten patterns at turkey distances.
• The receiver and barrel are finished in Moss Green Cerakote, a durable coating that resists weather and wear.
• The stock is Mossy Oak Original Bottomland over-molded Flex Tech, built with compression arches to absorb recoil.
• Sights are fiber optic and adjustable, fast to pick up in low light.
• The receiver is drilled and tapped for a scope, so an optic is an easy addition.
• The Swing Hammer and nitride-treated trigger, sear, firing pin and bushing give an ambidextrous hammer and a cleaner pull.
• Thompson Center lists the gun at 39-3/4 inches overall and 6-1/4 pounds without accessories.
