After changing the muzzleloading industry in 2020 with the introduction of the NitroFire® in collaboration for Federal Premium and Hodgdon, Traditions has just announced the the NitroFire® with the VAPR™ Twist.
New for 2022, this version of the NitroFire® will now feature a 1:24” VAPR™ Twist barrel. The faster twist helps to better stabilize bullets, increase accuracy, and expands the bullet options that can be used, according to a company news release.
The NitroFire® is available in .50 caliber and has a 26” Chromoly steel fluted and tapered barrel. The rifle is also equipped with Traditions® Elite XT™ trigger system. The Elite XT™ trigger is a crisp, clean breaking trigger optimized for hunting and features a rebounding hammer and cross block trigger safety, the company said.
As the first muzzleloader on the market that uses the Firestick system, the NitroFire® has now been elevated to a new level with the VAPR twist barrel. The MSRP for the NitroFire® with the VAPR™ twist ranges from $549-$699.
