Overview

The TRADITIONS NITROFIRE VAPR TWIST (SCOPE PACKAGE) pairs Federal’s FireStick polymer powder charge — filled with Hodgdon’s clean-burning Triple-Eight powder — with a faster 1:24 Vapr Twist barrel. That faster twist rate improves accuracy and stabilizes a wider range of projectiles, giving you more bullet choices for different hunting scenarios. This model comes with a 3-9×40 Duplex scope already mounted, a 26-inch barrel, and a synthetic stock with a matte black finish and a RealTree Edge pattern Cerakote finish on certain runs. The receiver is drilled and tapped for optics or iron sights; no iron sights are included.

Key Features and Field Performance

FireStick Ignition and Clean Shooting

Federal’s FireStick system offers consistent, user-friendly ignition and minimizes the mess associated with loose powder. Hodgdon Triple-Eight inside the FireStick is a clean-burning propellant that reduces fouling and simplifies maintenance after a day’s hunt.

Vapr Twist Barrel and Ballistics

The 1:24 twist rate expands viable projectile weights and improves downrange stability, especially if you prefer heavier, modern conical bullets. A 26-inch barrel balances velocity and maneuverability in wooded or variable-terrain hunting environments.

Price is competitive at $529.99 for the scope package, making this a strong value for shooters who want a ready-to-go muzzleloader backed by reputable component partners. View product details and pricing

Fit, Optics, and Ready-to-Hunt Setup

The included 3-9×40 Duplex scope covers most typical hunting distances for muzzleloaders and the drilled-and-tapped receiver makes scope swaps or iron sight installs straightforward. The synthetic stock and Cerakote options increase durability in wet or abrasive conditions, while the matte black components keep glare minimal during stalks or glassing.

For hunters wanting an easy-to-maintain, accurate single-shot platform that benefits from modern ignition and barrel tech, the TRADITIONS NITROFIRE VAPR TWIST (SCOPE PACKAGE) is a tactical and practical choice. Check current availability
