Traditions Performance Firearms, the leader in the muzzleloading industry, is here at SHOT Show 2025, announcing the release of their newest rifle, the NitroBolt. This is the first Firestick-capable bolt action muzzleloader available on the market. The Federal Firestick, a completely impervious to moisture and consistently packaged muzzle loader charge, makes for a safer, easier to use, and consistent shooting muzzleloader experience. So add that to a bolt action platform to create the incredibly accurate and easy-to-use NitroBolt. These rifles come with a free-floating 24” Chromoly Steel fluted and tapered barrel with a 1:24” VAPR Twist, with the action of the rifle pillar bedded in the stock. The stock itself has both an adjustable cheek piece and adjustable length of pull to allow shooters to fit the rifle to them. Additionally, the NitroBolt comes with a 3-position safety, 5/16-24 bolt handle design, cocking indicator, and a threaded barrel. MSRP for the NitroBolt is set at $995 and should be available for purchase in Summer 2025.
