In recently released product listings, muzzleloading enthusiasts are getting a first glimpse of a new line of rifles from Traditions, the Traditions Shedhorn. Known for their longstanding commitment to traditional, sidelock muzzleloaders and modern muzzleloaders, Traditions is rumored to be bringing some modern features to their line of sidelock rifles.

The Traditions® ShedHorn Muzzleloader is rumored to be a sidelock percussion cap musket cap ignition rifle, capable of shooting pellets and loose powder with a faster twist rifling for modern hunting projectiles and bullets.

First reports indicate the Traditions Shedhorn will start around $400.00-$500 for the base level model.

Traditions Shedhorn Release Date

While we don’t know a release date just yet, these are certainly some welcome features for muzzleloading enthusiasts wanting the look and feel of a traditional muzzleloader. In years past, Traditions announces new releases at the SHOT Show. We will likely hear more later this month.
