New Muzzleloader

Don't know if you've seen this yet, but Traditions has came out with a double-barrelled(sp?) muzzleloader:

I sure like the double barrel idea.

I sure didn't like the price. $1,399 USD

I wouldn't use this enough for that kind of $$$.

It is an interesting idea, but the fact that it weighs in at 12.5 lbs, without a scope or base, would make it a bugger of a thing to carry while hunting.

I wonder how well the barrels are regulated?

Same concerns regarding the weight....my god this thing would weigh in at close to if not over 15 pounds fully loaded with a good leupold scope and base and QRW rings I wouldn't want to lug that around too long. Weight is the exact reason my CVA Optima Pro in .45 was sold and replaced with a T/C Omega thumbhole.....huge difference with a 2-7 Vari X II vs the 3-9 Burris signature my CVA wore. All told my new Omega weighs in at about 7 to 7 1/2 pounds done right up and is a nice comfortable shooter now Just need to stick meduim rings on instead of the low QRW's

They messed up on the traditional price tag
