Traditions introduces the NitroBolt, the first bolt-action muzzleloading rifle designed specifically to use the patented Federal FireStick ignition system, so hunters need only load their bullet of choice. The .50-caliber rifle comes with a base to mount your riflescope of choice, and its barrel is threaded for use with a muzzle brake or suppressor.
Traditions has reimagined muzzleloader hunting with the NitroBolt, bolt-action muzzleloading rifle designed around the Federal FireStick system. With the Firestick, no longer will hunters accidentally overcharge their muzzleloading rifle with too much powder. The Firestick system is a factory-manufactured, precision-filled encapsulated charge that provides hunters the exact load they expect, every time. Hunters simply insert one preloaded FireStick in the breech, add a No. 209 primer then seat their bullet of choice through the muzzle. The FireStick provides safe removal of an unfired charge from the breech at the end of a day of hunting. It’s also sealed from outside moisture so shots remain reliable in any weather.
The NitroBolt’s 24-inch chrome-moly steel barrel is free-floated on pillar bedding built within the stock. It is fluted and tapered, and is cut with a 1:24-inch VAPR twist. It is threaded for use with a muzzle brake. The bolt features three locking lugs, and a 60-degree lift for ease of use with a riflescope. Its three-position safety keeps the gun completely safe during use. A cocking indicator signals when the gun is loaded with a patented FireStick. The bolt can be disassembled in seconds for ease of maintenance and cleaning. Best of all, the bolt features a patented extractor for the Firestick. The black composite stock is built with pillar bedding to free-float the barrel. Its length of pull and cheekpiece are adjustable so hunters can achieve some degree of customization.
Look for the NitroBolt this summer at an MSRP of $995. Watch a video about the Traditions NitroBolt on YouTube here.
