I went to Cabela's today and looked at the CVA Kodiak's. I did not ever think I would buy such a gun(the Apex is the same as the Kodiak), but I was definetely wrong about it. The Apex is just like the Kodiak 209 Pro Magnum in blued/stainless except that the Kodiak pro was $310. I loved the gun. It balanced nice, had great sights, was built well, and seems very simple. If it can shoot 3inch groups, I will be absolutely pleased with it. I looked at the Omega and honestly liked the Kodiak better. The Omegaseems like too much money for the gun.If the Apex is anywhere near as nice as the one I looked at I will be perfectly happy without the Omega. I hope it lasts for years as I expect it will. I'll keep you posted.
Once I got mine, those were my sentiments exactly. I didn't get the chance to see what I was getting before it came but relied on dmurphy317's assessment of the rifle, I respected his opinion that much. He didn't lead me astray. I am very satisfied. You are just going to love it, I think. Please do keep us posted.
