RE: Traditions Yukon
ORIGINAL: TNHagies
I own a Genesis which is basically the same gun. I personally love mine. From everyone I've talked to that owns one of these they all love powerbelts-mine included. However, I'm too cheep to shoot them and after the sucess I've had w/XTPs I now only shoot 300g XTPs.
2' group sounds pretty good for me w/open sights.That'll kill a deer for certain. I put a new scope on mine last week soI had to sight it in again andhere's what mine will do w/the load I use to hunt with (100g Pyrodex RS, 300g XTP, Crush Rib Sabot) This was shot at 50 yards. (Shot 1, adjusted, 2, adjusted, 3&4, adjusted, 5&6, adjusted, 7&8 packed it up and went home)

Quality is great in my opinion. I have shot many, many inlines and it'll kill a deer just as good as any other one will. The only thing that I wish was a little better is the trigger. It has too much creep in it for my personal prefrence but it must not be too bad as I haven't done anything to change it. But if you search here on the forum, somebody not too long ago found a way to improve it. Cleaning it is a cinch and I love the feel of it. All things considered, it will serve you well.
Hope this helps and hopefully you'll get a chance to try it out next year.

RE: Traditions Yukon
Let me ask one more question now, I was given a Burris scope and mounting rings, What type of mounting plate do I need for the Yukon? I have mounted scopes easily on my rifles but the line up for the mounts are different here.
