what are the current components needed for an Encore smokeless?

[buggz]

I will have a NIB T/C Encore Pro Hunter Max 1 Camo with a 223 barrel arriving sometime next week.
I always wanted to get into this system, hopefully I will enjoy it,
I'm already wanting as many different barrels as I have ammo for.

I am thinking that switching out to a muzzle loader system would be a cool thing to have as well.
Though, I have ZERO experience with any muzzle loaders.

I see a FS Encore Barrel assembly 209x45 BP complete with forearm for sale locally.
Guess I could use Pyrodex pellets with it?

Though the smokeless options seem appealing, though much more expensive.

It seems all the youtube videos are now old?
Has things changed a lot in recent years?
I'm guessing the Arrowhead Encore barrel solutions are the one to have?
Is the Jeff Hankins Encore barrel solutions still available?

Thanks.

Shoot Luke at Arrowhead an email or call and he'll hook you up. I just went through this exact thing. Had a pro hunter sitting around for a few years untouched so I ventured into the smokeless game. Not cheap to set up initially but fun. I haven't fine tuned mine enough to get accurate loads, but need to get on it. I have a late season deer hunt I need to start practicing for!
