The Lymans shoot very good.
The PA Pellet rifle received several good reviews when Bass Pro was selling it. It's a reliable flintlock with some modern features that gives it a little more appeal than the Lyman.
Neither are designed to be long range tack drivers when firing patched round balls. However, the Traditions should perform very well if shooting bore size conicals or saboted bullets for hunting.

The Traditions wood stock is not as good as the Lyman. But IMO its longer barrel, lock and adjustable fiber optic sights are more desirable which should make up for any difference in round ball performance.
