Traditions NitroFire VAPR .50 Cal with 3-9×40 Scope, Black

The Traditions Performance Firearms (MPN: CR584110440) NitroFire VAPR uses the Federal Premium Firestick encapsulated powder charge system, a polymer-cased load of clean-burning Hodgdon Triple Eight powder that charges from the breech while the bullet loads from the muzzle. That design keeps the charge impervious to moisture and gives it the same tight quality control as loaded ammunition, all while staying fast to load and unload. This VAPR-twist version runs a 1:24 twist rate through a 26″ fluted and tapered Chromoly barrel, the Elite XT trigger system, and a black synthetic stock in Premium CeraKote, with a 3-9×40 duplex scope mounted and boresighted at the factory. A 209 shotgun primer (not included) completes the ignition. Find it in our Single Shot Rifles category.
