The Traditions Outfitter G3 .35 Whelen scoped rifle is a break-action single shot built for hunters who want a big-bore cartridge in a light package (Traditions part no. CR5-350030W). It combines a 22-inch chromoly barrel with a steel frame and the Elite XT trigger, and it arrives with a 3-9×40 duplex scope mounted and boresighted by a factory-trained technician. The .35 Whelen has long been a favorite for heavy game at woods ranges, and the G3 makes it a carry-friendly rifle. Traditions notes that the model suits smaller-framed shooters too.
