Powerful .45-70 Government Performance
The .45-70 Government is one of the most respected and versatile big game cartridges in North America. Known for its heavy bullet weights and exceptional terminal performance, the .45-70 is capable of taking the largest game animals on the continent. The 22-inch barrel on the Outfitter G3 Pro RIS is optimized to extract maximum velocity and energy from this classic cartridge, providing reliable knockdown power at typical hunting ranges. This makes the G3 Pro RIS an excellent option for hunters who need a straight-wall or lever-action alternative with serious stopping ability.
The Traditions Outfitter G3 Pro RIS .45-70 Government delivers classic big game power with a 22-inch threaded Cerakote barrel, muzzle brake, adjustable stock, and included 3-9x40 scope.
Threaded Cerakote Barrel with Muzzle Brake
This model is equipped with a 22-inch fluted barrel finished in durable Tungsten Cerakote for outstanding corrosion resistance and a modern appearance. The barrel is threaded and comes with a radial muzzle brake that significantly reduces felt recoil from the powerful .45-70 cartridge. The threaded muzzle also allows hunters to easily attach a suppressor where legal, providing additional recoil reduction and noise suppression. The Cerakote finish protects the barrel from harsh weather and extends the life of the rifle in demanding field conditions.
Adjustable Synthetic Stock
The Outfitter G3 Pro RIS features a fully adjustable synthetic stock that allows shooters to customize both length of pull and cheekpiece height. This adjustability ensures a perfect fit for a wide range of shooters, including youth hunters and those with smaller frames. The synthetic stock is rugged, weather-resistant, and designed to handle the heavy recoil of the .45-70 Government while maintaining comfort during extended hunts.
Elite XT Trigger and Premium Features
The rifle is equipped with Traditions’ Elite XT trigger, which delivers a crisp, clean break with minimal creep for improved accuracy. The Elite XT system also permits safe opening of the action for loading and unloading while the manual cross-bolt safety is engaged. The receiver is drilled and tapped for optics, and this model includes a factory-mounted and bore-sighted 3-9x40 duplex scope, making it a complete ready-to-hunt package.
