If theres a rifle that traditions makes that catches your eye, which rifle would you want to see tested out?

If you're talking inline.. the Pursuit Pro XLT If you are talking traditional rifles, I would like to see someone shoot the Shenandoah.

I've always eyed the Shenandoah .36 and wanted one... just don't really have a use for it.

Artic Cap

The magazine review of their double rifle in Guns & Ammo was pretty good. Although as I read it my thoughts were, its a double rifle, accuracy reported was about what any of their regular inline rifles would do, and its heavy. That extra barrel would get heavy at the end of the day. Also double rifles are not always legal in some states. I personally do not see the need for a double rifle like that for what I hunt. Granted it might be nice for larger dangerous game. But I will just put the first one in the right spot and take my chances from there.

powderburns,

I have a yukon, don't shoot it as much as I used to, but it's going to the range on Friday. Need to work up a bear load for VA's blackpowder bear season. I've got a few deer loads, shoot me a p.m. and let me know what you'd like to know about it. I've made some posts in the past, but sometimes the search feature doesn't seem to work.

I shouldered a .36 Shenendoa that was on display at the Traditions company store earlier this month. They had one that was marked with an "S"whichmeans it was a"factory second" because it hada scuff or twoon thebrass patch box or such.
It fit me well and I liked it, especially because it was about $100 less than regular price.
I have one of their older .36 Frontier Gander models except it has a 28 inch barrel. The .36's aredefinitelya fun caliber to shootand the .36Shenendoashould be too.
Actually, I thought that it was a beautiful rifle which fit me better than the Cabela's/PedersoliBlue Ridgerifle that I shouldered at Cabela's once. But that's justmy personalpreference.
