New to muzzleloading and want to hunt deer in Iowa with one this year.  The question is which gun.  Tried the omega and encore.  they fit me great.  Hated the fit on the knight rifle.  Between omega and encore which one is better and why.
Thanks for your help
Is there another I shoud look at?

Both are awesome rifles. If being able to swap barrels is important, then the Encore is the way to go but I own several of each and couldn't pick a favourite. The Omega will offer slightly higher muzzle velocities due to its longer barrel but both are sub one-inch shooters in the right hands and both are equally easy to clean.

I own both an Encore and and Omega, don't  thing you can go wrong with either. That being said I prefer the Omega for hunting as it always outshoots my Encore.
