Description


The .45 Caliber 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, black composite 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.

Accurate, lightweight and great trigger

I own several muzzleloaders and this has become my favorite for several reasons. First is accuracy. Yesterday at 100 yards I fired a 3 shot group that measured 5/8" center to center. Most of my groups measure about 1" or slightly larger. I've used a variety of .40 bullets in Harvester Light blue sabots and all seem to shoot well. The trigger is very good, if not a bit on the light side but great for bench shooting. The StrikerFire is nice with the secondary cross bolt safety and allows lower scope mounting than on a hammer gun. For hunting I will keep it cocked but with the cross bolt safety on safe, much like most CF rifles. It is lighter in weight than most ML's so easy to carry but still seems to balance and hold well.

Lightweight with light trigger

I’m very happy with my rifle ! I do have a word of caution to future buyers though. The rifle has a very light trigger pull. I don’t think a gloved hand is advisable. I love the weight and balance of it. It’s a definite “keeper” after sighting it in.

Very Nice Rifle!

Only gave 4 stars, have not fired it as of yet, weather in Northeast Oh,says I have to wait ! Very well made, locks up solid, fit- finish very good! Balance is good also, it’s wearing a Bushnell Banner 2, long time 45 cal muzzloader fan, I wanted a new one,but the prices on the Other 45s available,where too much,my old cva is 21 yrs old,Hunter bolt mag,it still a shooter,! The trigger on it is crazy good, should be a very accurate long range Hunter, I’ll continue this review when I get to a range, shipping was outstanding! Very quick, to my door 👍🏻I would buy another from them ..
