NITROFIRE

Federal’s Firestick weatherproof powder charges load from the breech, so the only thing you need to ram down the barrel is your bullet. And with no breech plug, cleaning your muzzleloader has never been easier. Boasting 200-metre accuracy, the Nitrofire features a 26-inch fluted barrel and comes drilled and tapped for a scope.
