I was thinking the same so I could be have leftover points for another gun  :chuckle:

Cheap accurate
throw rail and 1xscope on
Good shooting
which scope did you put on it?

1x Traditions

After getting burned with a bad cva accura lrx and refusing to pay Knights markup, I picked up a traditions vortek strikerfire last year. I didn't have high hopes for such a cheap rifle but it actually shoots fantastic.

Was in there today, my bet is they close their doors real soon :twocents:!

Yeah I was extremely disappointed a couple weeks ago. I hadn’t been there for a while and man did it look like inventory levels were really low in almost every department.

I’m currently leaning towards the Traditions Pursuit XT Pro. Really like the finish, just hope it shoots better then it looks.

Thinking of putting a holosun on my CVA, the one I have on my .300 blackout is on a rail.  What’s the best way to attach it to my muzzy? Buy a rail, which one? And I hope it’s not gonna sit too high with the rail to zero in??  Advice.

You should be good putting a rail on it and slapping the Holosun on. My buddy put a Trijicon RMR on his rail and it sits just fine.

Do you guys think the traditions nitro fire is legal in Wa??   It has the powder in a plastic casing and is loaded at the back end of barrel with the primer.

No joke! Last time I was in it was like a ghost town! Inventory levels in a handful of departments looked really low. Plus the selection they offer looked condensed compared to previous years.

I drew multi deer so I will be definitely getting a muzzy and have an excuse now to give it a try.

(a) Muzzleloader: A firearm that is loaded from the muzzle and uses black powder or a black powder substitute as recommended by the manufacturer for use in all muzzleloading firearms. The term load refers to the powder charge and projectile and both must be loaded from the muzzle.
