Traditions® Performance Firearms manufactures the most accurate muzzleloaders on the market. In 2020, they introduced the NitroFire® in collaboration with Federal Premium® and Hodgdon®—a breakthrough that fundamentally changed muzzleloading. They've since expanded their lineup with additional innovations like the NitroBolt® and refined models like the Crackshot™ XBR™.
The NitroFire® is the first and best muzzleloader to use Federal Premium's Firestick™ encapsulated powder charge. Key features:
The Firestick™ loads from the breech while bullets load from the muzzle—three steps: load projectile, insert Firestick, add 209 primer.
Available in multiple configurations including the Pro Series with adjustable cheekpiece and length of pull, plus the standard model with Veil Wideland camo and Burnt Bronze CeraKote.
The NitroBolt® represents another industry first: a bolt-action muzzleloader built for accuracy.
Precision Features: - 24" fluted and tapered Chromoly steel barrel - 1:24" VAPR™ Twist for consistency - 3 locking lugs and 60-degree bolt handle - Patented Firestick™ extractor - Cocking indicator - Free-floating barrel with pillar bedded stock - Adjustable cheekpiece (12 positions) - Adjustable length of pull (14.5"-13.75") - 3-position safety (load/unload/fire) - 3/4-24 threaded barrel for optional muzzle brake - Disassembles in seconds with allen key for cleaning
Compatible with Smackdown® bullet series including Carnivore™, ELD-X, MZX, XR™, and Bleed™ models. Comes with scope base; not drilled and tapped for sights.
