The Traditions Outfitter G3 Pro .450 Bushmaster 22 in Threaded is a break-action single-shot rifle built for hunters who demand precision and reliability in the field. This rifle pairs a 22-inch chromoly fluted barrel with an adjustable stock system, allowing you to dial in your fit for consistent shot placement. It ships with a factory-mounted 3-9×40 BDC scope and a muzzle brake to tame the .450 Bushmaster’s recoil, making it a practical choice for large-game hunting. The Elite XT trigger system and manual trigger block safety keep operation straightforward and safe.

Key Features
- Threaded 22-inch Chromoly Fluted Barrel: The 1:24 twist rate stabilizes heavy .450 Bushmaster projectiles for sub-MOA accuracy at 200 yards, and the threaded muzzle (5/8×24 pattern) accepts suppressors or brakes without adapter headaches.
- Adjustable Stock System: Length of pull and cheek riser adjust with no tools, so you can set a consistent cheek weld for every shot—critical when you’re working a single-shot action.
- Factory-Mounted 3-9×40 BDC Scope: Comes zeroed at 100 yards from Traditions, saving you range time. The BDC reticle matches .450 Bushmaster ballistics out to 300 yards.
- Elite XT Trigger System: A crisp, 3.5-pound trigger break with zero creep, letting you squeeze off shots without disturbing your sight picture—essential for ethical hunting shots.
- Muzzle Brake Included: Reduces felt recoil by approximately 40% compared to a bare muzzle, keeping you on target for quick follow-ups even with heavy loads.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the hunter who values simplicity and accuracy over magazine capacity. It’s ideal for thick-cover deer, bear, or hog hunting where a single, well-placed shot decides the outcome. The adjustable stock also suits shooters with varying body sizes or those who use heavy clothing in cold weather.
Pros and Cons
- Pros: Sub-MOA accuracy potential out of the box; adjustable stock for perfect fit; threaded barrel for suppressor use; scope included and pre-zeroed; lightweight at 7.2 lbs for carry.
- Cons: Single-shot action limits follow-up speed; included scope is adequate but not premium glass—you may upgrade later for low-light conditions.
