RE: tc omega
Both are great rifles.Both will get the job done. Although do some price checking. The T/C Omega in many places has come down in price to make it very afforable. Of course the Pursuit will be less money in almost all cases still.
The Omega is a Thompson Center. It has American Steel, and American craftsmanship. They have excellent fit and finish. They also have outstanding customer support. The Tradition's Pursuit is a Spanish BPI barrel, but they too are well made, have a great customer support and will get the job done.
I guess I would look at it this way, if this was the only black powder rifle I would ever buy or one that I would really need to depend on and pass down to future generations, then I guess I would be inclined to spend the extra money for the Omega.
