Key Features
- Stainless Steel Barrel: A 24-inch, .50-caliber barrel with a 1:28″ twist rate provides corrosion resistance and consistent accuracy with saboted bullets or conicals.
- DuraSight Dead-On One-Piece Mount: A pre-installed, machined aluminum scope base eliminates guesswork—your optic mounts solidly and directly to the action for a reliable zero.
- Realtree Hardwoods Green HD Stock: A high-definition camouflage pattern on a rugged synthetic stock breaks up your outline in a variety of timber and brush environments.
- 209 Magnum Ignition: Uses standard 209 shotgun primers for reliable ignition in damp, cold, or dirty conditions where traditional percussion caps can fail.

Weighing in at approximately 7 pounds, this muzzleloader balances well for off-hand shots and carries easily through dense cover. The 1:28″ twist rate is optimized for modern saboted bullets, like those from Hornady or Barnes, giving you the ballistic performance needed for ethical, longer-range shots. Here’s the thing—this isn’t a fussy replica; it’s a modern hunting tool built to work. The package is drop-in ready for a scope, requiring no gunsmithing to get a secure mount, so you can spend your time at the range, not the workbench.
Who This Rifle Is For
This Wolf is for the dedicated hunter who wants to extend their season. It’s for the Missouri deer hunter looking to capitalize on the special muzzleloader season, or the turkey hunter who needs a reliable, single-shot option. It’s also an ideal entry point for someone new to muzzleloading, thanks to its straightforward 209 ignition and easy maintenance. If your priority is a no-nonsense, accurate rifle that you can trust in rain, sleet, or early morning frost, this model fits the bill.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The stainless steel construction offers significant protection against the elements, a major advantage in humid or wet environments. The included DuraSight mount is a genuine value-add, providing a rock-solid foundation for optics from brands like Vortex or Leupold. The break-action design simplifies unloading a charged barrel safely—a key safety feature. At $256.70, it represents a substantial value for a complete, hunt-ready system.
Cons: As a single-shot muzzleloader, your follow-up shot speed is limited by your reloading procedure. The synthetic stock, while durable, may not have the classic feel of a wood stock some hunters prefer. The 24-inch barrel is a great balance, but hunters seeking maximum velocity for extended range might look for a longer barrel option.
