Despite its name and extensive line of traditionally styled muzzloaders, Traditions Performance Firearms is at the cutting edge of modern muzzleloading and hunting firearms, with innovations like its NitroFire rifles and Crackshot XBR arrow launching rifles. New for 2024, Traditions is adding Pro Series models to its most popular firearm lines.
Pro Series firearms are available in the NitroFire, Pursuit XT and G3 Outfitter rifles, offering features that are optimized for the modern hunter. Pro Series firearms have three features that set them apart from other Traditions rifles. First, the buttstock uses an adjustable cheekpiece. A single screw, that can be loosened with a screwdriver or coin, allows the cheekpiece to be adjusted for the best sight picture with the type of optics being used.
Second, the buttstock has an adjustable length-of-pull. This is accomplished through a spacer system, which allows the stock to be adjusted to fit the individual hunter or even customized to the amount of clothing they are wearing throughout the season, Finally, Pro Series rifles have barrels with their muzzle threaded for use with a muzzle compensator or suppressor.
Traditions is adding a Pro Series line to their NitroFire Pursuit XT and G3 Outfitter rifles. The NitroFire is pictured here.
