Thompson/Center built its reputation on muzzleloaders, and the Triumph is the design that made the break-open inline simple enough for anyone. The frame opens with a single lever for loading and for removing the breech plug by hand, without tools, which makes cleaning after a blackpowder session far less of a chore than older designs.

This .45 caliber version wears a nitride-treated barrel for corrosion resistance and a camo FlexTech stock and forend, with recoil-absorbing inserts that take the sting out of heavy magnum powder charges during a long muzzleloader season.
