So in other words, you can barely shoot the Encore cause you don't want to put wear on the reciever....Ya ok Tim 
!! If that's the case, then all the NEF,H&R,Rossi,Baikal and any other single shot hinge action firearms are a poor choice because of wear on the reciever 
To each there own, I personally like my Encore. I don't shoot the hell out of it
so I'm not too worried about wear & tear. I'm pretty darn sure though, when T/C designed their firearms they took that into account
When you make your choice Dr. Chris, it will be the right one

Their is no doubt that TC guns are well made. However, if you shoot a couple of thousand rimfire, a couple hundred centerfire, and a few dozen muzzle loader shots per year all that opening and closing will wear a fair bit over time.You just have to look at how double barrel shotguns wear when you see the release off center when they close. I don't care how well they are made they haven't created steal that doesn't wear. 10/22's will fire tens of thousands of rounds. How would a break action single shot hold up to that amount of opening and closing ? Also for the cost of a good rimfire, centerfire, and BP gun you would not spend all that much more than a TC system with three barrels.
Also, considering the quality of some of the mid priced guns today such as savage and Remington you'd probably spent less and also get far more life out of your firearms. But if you don't shoot this much the TC may be a good choice.

Ive had a Knight Wolverine, TC Omega and now own a Savage ML 2 w/ accutrigger and I can honestly say it has been the best modern inline muzzleloader I have owned and shot.
The gun easily shoots a 1"-1.5 inch group, is good for 300 yards and is so clean, no messy black powder. Another cool factor is you don't have to wait 30 secs for the cloud of smoke to clear to see if you hit the deer.
I couldnt get my Omega to shoot any better then my 12 guage but have heard many good things about the Encore's. My brother-inlaw shot his mule buck with my Savage and is buying the ML-II for this comming season, he was also very impressed.
Cheers!!

They're high end milspec red dot scopes - 1 power - very fast to use . It's just that I have 1 of each and they can be readily transferred between guns (have to resight of course). Virtually all the hunting i'll be doing will be in cover - 75 yards or less.
thnaks for the tips Ikantski and Blargon.
Where we ML hunt often we get groups of deer show up. After shooting one, I've had the others mill around sometimes watching me reload. But usually they run off some time before I'm priming my piece - too late to down a second. I haven't figured out how to reload and stay still too. The deer see the movement of course. A reliable two shooter could prove useful in my neck of the woods I think.
I saw an O/U ML advertised, but I don't remember the brand name. I do remember it was over 10lbs without scope etc. To heavy for my liking, but if you're stand hunting, weight doesn't really matter.
I find the deer aren't bothered by the ML shot, if you stay out of sight, you can get a 2nd shot.
Found it. Traditions Express, 12.5 pounds before optics, $$$$

For that kind of money, I'd just buy another cheap inline, have the powder and bullet loaded, but unprimed (technically not a loaded firearm without the primer). Shoot with one, then prime and shoot the other.

Boy that is going to be a nice rifle to hunt with. humble suggestion before you decide what to put on it for a scope is to spend some time shooting it with irons first. You get an idea of what you want/need better that way.
I try and get a rifle to proove itself before I invest more money in it.
