I see it specifically mentioned the CVA Wolf V2 and the Accura V2 have break-open designs, but does the Optima as well?
Accura has the custom quality Bergara barrel which can be a plus (comes with a price), but not sure you'll see much benefit if used in hardwoods setting where shots are typically 50-100 yards.Found the answer. The Wolf, Optima, and Accura V2s all have break-open actions and Quick-Release Breech Plugs (QRBP).
Considering our average MZ shot distance is 35 yards, with top-end distance of 80 yards across a food plot.Accura has the custom quality Bergara barrel which can be a plus (comes with a price), but not sure you'll see much benefit if used in hardwoods setting where shots are typically 50-100 yards.
I think my brother is looking at the Optima V2. He would prefer the 1:28 twist barrel over the 1:24. Probably put a Leupold VX Freedom 2-7x on it. We need very low magnification scopes for close-range shooting.I've got a wolf I'd consider selling if you are interested. Could drop a fixed power 6x leupold on it if you need a scope.
My bad. I mistook the barrel length for twist rate. You are correct, 1:28"CVA does not offer a 1-24 twist 50cal. Traditions does. All CVA 50s except the Paramount are 1-28. Really though a 1-24 has avantages over the 1-28 but most people will never need it.
