Traditions A2016B Smackdown 45Cal 280Gr 12/Box$22.03
Availability: In Stock
The Traditions Smackdown 50-caliber muzzleloader bullet is purpose-built for modern inline and traditional muzzleloaders that shoot conical projectiles without sabots. At 340 grains and .499 diameter, this round pairs the ballistic efficiency of a polymer-tipped design with the stopping power hunters need in the field. The Smackdown line has earned its reputation among serious muzzleloader hunters, and this 50-cal load maintains that standard with controlled expansion and deep penetration engineered for ethical harvests on medium to large game.
What sets the Smackdown apart is its no-sabot convenience—load it straight from your powder horn and get on with your hunt. The polymer tip initiates expansion upon impact, while an Interlock ring system helps the bullet retain weight through the shot. The copper alloy jacket and aerodynamic design maximize energy delivery downrange, and the polymer base is tuned for solid ignition engagement with your rifling. At 0.315 BC, you're getting respectable flight characteristics for a muzzleloader round, which means better energy retention at distance and flatter trajectory than many traditional cast bullets.
Colorado shooters will appreciate that the Smackdown line includes Colorado-compliant options, and this particular load carries that certification. Whether you're hunting from a blind or glassing open country, this is a bullet engineered to perform when it matters. Each box contains 12 rounds, giving you plenty for scouting, practice, and season work.
