The Traditions PA Pellet Ultralight is a .50 caliber flintlock muzzleloader with a 26-inch barrel, a Black Cerakote finish and an ultralight hardwood stock. Its loading system is set up for pelletized powder charges, which keeps the charge consistent from shot to shot, and the single-action flintlock ignition keeps the rifle traditional in operation. The Cerakote coating is there for corrosion resistance during regular carry and range use.

This is a light rifle for a hunter who walks. Connecticut opens its muzzleloader deer season on December 9 with a .45 caliber minimum, and the .50 PA Pellet qualifies on private land as well as state land, where only shotguns and muzzleloaders may be used for deer. Pellet loading speeds the reload, the 26-inch barrel keeps the package compact, and the stock is built light for carry. A Cerakote flintlock is an unusual pairing: old ignition, modern finish.
