what is the best load for my cva optima mag 209? Without being so pricey!!!
Have you tried some 240 grain Hornady XTP's with around 100 grains of loose powder? You can buy them in bulk as well as the sabots, and they normally shoot very well out of CVA's. They do mine anyway. I have a CVA Staghorn and I shoot them with 90 grains of Goex 2f with real good accuracy. They make a nice deer hunting load as well.
