I just finished re-reading a fairly good report about the Traditions although it did not specify it being a PRO. However, the person did mention the violent recoil with 150 grains of Pyrodex pellets and found the rifle to be more accurate and tolerable with 100 grains instead:
Another individual (Pittsburghhunter - partly edited) wrote this in reponse to a report about an H & R Huntsman:
"I would look into the MDM muzzleloaders I think they use the same receiver as NEF because the guns look identical but they have a breech plug that you just put the primer in and standard threads on the ramrod.
My son's MDM Quickshooter is a heck of a rifle for less than $200. 26" barrel magnum charges can be used and is very accurate. It does have an ugly stock that has a textured non-slip finnish but a good shooting no hassles rifle."
