Your range will be determined by the ability to find the right load for the rifle and the optics you use. One thing that is true for me is, without a scope, I am a 100 yard shooter. I just do not see with open sights good enough to shoot further then 100 yards. So you take my scope away, and it would not matter if I were using a inline, traditional, matchlock, spear, rock, what ever. If I can't see it, I can't shoot it.

The CVA I am sure will be a 100 yard rifle without a scope. I see no reason why it would not be. People are reporting excellent accuracy out of them. With the right optics, you can stretch that even out to 200 yards with practice.

Be sure and read the owners manual and pay strict attention to the load recommendations and follow those guidelines. Good luck with your rifle..
