I have a Traditions single shot 50 cal. which is one of the early ones they made. I am less than impressed with the accuracy that I can get out of it. The sights suck also. If you get one plan on spending some money for decent sights. For hunting in Arizona none of the revolver pistols are legal. Must be single barrel single shot to be legal. I would consider a T/C Encore or Contender but the cost is pretty high. I thought I would carry the Traditions as a back up gun for my muzzle loading hunt; but, after lugging it around and only having one time to try to use it I decided it was not worth the effort.
