New Muzzleloader

[danbiv]

This year I plan on buying a new muzzleloader. I've had a Knight since I was young and it's time to turn it in. Any recommendations on my next one? I don't know what's out now so I need a little advice.

Cva accura v-2 is really a stud for the price! Love mine!

I will have to check out Knight I've always liked mine so I hate to change. I do like that CVA though.

CVA Optima! Great gun and not bad on price either!

I shoot a TC Omega. Love It!

The trick for me was finding one that had a comfortable stock. I also had issues with the click I heard on most of the break-action models. I talked myself out of some high-end muzzies because of these two. Looks can be very deceiving.

I bought a CVA Optima last year with a thumbhole stock at Wally World for $169 on "rollback". Stuck a 3-9x40 Bushnell on it for $49 and it will shoot 2" patterns at 100 yards all day with 270gr Platinum Powerbelts and 150gr Pyrodex. It will also stop one dead in their tracks at 22. I know. As stated, just pick one. They are not your father's Oldsmobile.

I would choose one with a break open action. Much easier to clean. Traditions has a new one out in stainless that's around $300.

There's a beak open T/C Impact in the classifieds for cheap!

i bought a rossi combo last year , 50 cal m/l with a 12 gauge slug barrel. got it new for 100 bucks at a local gun shop include a few extras as well . i want say its the best gun out there but for the price it works well. i put a scope on it and sighted in at 100 yards shoots plenty good for me. its a break action and i would highly recommand that if u are buying a new inline.

Cmaoman270, I see from a post you really like the CVA Accura V2. Did you get a regular or thumbhole stock?

Cva wolf, cant find any difference in the wolf and the optima besides price and thumbhole stock. maybe 1" or two on barrel length not sure. but I love my wolf.
