I can't lay my hands on a new KP1. I'm considering other options for a multi barrel all in one. Any pros or cons with CVA Elite or a Rossi matched set. They both have better prices than knight and T/C. I'm looking at a 270/50cal mag.

Thanks 8's you notice 0 available. 2 places here in Camden and 1 in Paris have em back ordered.I'm on the List. The Rossi matched set is 3 barrels cheaper than the knight or T/C. I've read some good stuff about the CVA. Both are lighter than the Knight. They made the Knight heavy to handle the larger cal's.

Yeah I would stay away from the Rossis due to the horrible triggers. Around 7 pounds usually. I bought my 8 year old one and it is horrible. I would also stay away from the NEF due to the Priner caps that have to be used. I know you did not mention NEF, but I thought I would throw it in. The CVA Optima Elite system is a great deal for the money. They are using the Bergara barrels and they shoot very well from what I have researched. I would take the CVA over the KP1 and put the money you save over the KP1 in quality optics.

Thanks for some feed back guys. The reviews I have found on the Rossi say the trigger pull is about 3.5lbs pull .They say the CVA is about 3lbs. I'll be in Nashville next week and try to find a few to throw up on my shoulder to get a feel for.
