T/C Omega vs Encore for blackpowder hunting

I am looking at either the Omega or Encore which I will only be using for Muzzleloading, so the different calibers for the Encore does not come into play. I have heard good things about both, but cant seem to make up my mind. Any opinions on these two guns?

An encore will cost much more than an Omega, if that is important.
The encore, however, is extremely versatile with several barrels available for it.
I really love the trigger on the Omega, it is much better than the one on my encore.
YOu can't go wrong with either.
The encore has an extractor that lifts the spent primer out of the breech plug slightly so it is easy to remove. The Omega does not have this feature.
The Omega's breech plug can be removed without complete disassembling the firearm. YOu have to take the primer extractor out of the encore to remove the breech plug.
I am confident you will be happy with either one.
Good luck and straight shooting.
the Omega is also lighter and I believe just a little shorter overall but has a longer barrel than the Encore , both are great guns but if I where only looking for a muzzle loader and nothing more, then it would be the Omega
