I would think they are both fairly comperable. The Kodiak I think is a little higher end CVA offering, but the Wolf seems like decent little rifle. I am not personally a CVA fan as I am not fond of their overall quality, fitment and finish. But if cared for and not misused, they should provide very good service.

Of the two you mentioned I would go with the one that handles, feels and shoulders the best to you. Regardless of what model youend up with.

You are the one that will be carrying and shooting the ML, so you might as well get something you like and are comfortable with. If possible, try to find one with a smoother trigger as some of them (Kodiak and Wolf)that I have looked at are a bit rough and heavy trigger-wise.

As mentioned, read, understandand followyour manual very carefully andask questions if you are not sure.

Good Luck!
