The .45 Caliber Traditions® Vortek StrikerFire™ VAPR™ Muzzleloader comes with a 3-9x40mm bore-sighted duplex scope and a durable 48" soft or hard rifle case. The Muzzle-loaders.com™ scope was designed specifically for muzzleloaders, giving you a great value and quality performance. The duplex reticle is unbreakable, and the multi-coated optics are clear and bright. Add in a lifetime warranty and this scope will bring you years of stellar performance.

The Traditions® Vortek StrikerFire™ VAPR™ Muzzleloader Rifle takes in-line muzzleloaders to the next level by removing the need for an external hammer and replacing it with an internal StrikerFire™ System. The StrikerFire works on the same principle as modern center-fire rifle safeties. To cock the gun, simply slide the striker button forward until it locks, then fire. The recessed de-cocking button allows for quick and quiet de-cocking of the firearm. The gun also comes equipped with an automatic de-cocking mechanism, so when the gun is opened, it is automatically de-cocked. By eliminating the external hammer you get faster lock times, plus the ability to mount your scope closer to the bore allows the gun to operate with less weight.

Traditions™ equipped the StrikerFire™ with some additional features. The StrikerFire™ is outfitted with a two-stage trigger that is set at 3 pounds and is creep free. The innovative stock design makes the rifle lighter than any other rifle in its class while still maintaining maximum strength and durability. The Strikerfire VAPR™ model comes with a 1:20" fast twist barrel which is designed to properly stabilize modern high-BC muzzleloading bullets.

The StrikerFire™ also features a premium CeraKote™ finish, Realtree™ Edge Camo stock, one-piece Accelerator Breech Plug™ that allows you to fire both loose or pelletized powder without changing the breech plug, a Dual Safety System, and Speed Load System that enables easier loading and more consistent groupings.
