My old CVA Apollo amazed me.

Crashed the Blazer yesterday so I had to stay home and decided to get my Old CVA Apollo out (early 1990’s- not the recall ones) . It has a 2lb trigger so and the stock was touching so I decided to bed the stock. Had to try it tonight. Shot som 240 xtp’s. and 195 and 200 Dead center. Kind of amazed at how it shot. I got the idea to bed it after shooting my new .45 Kodiak and the stock seems to flex on the rest. This cheap (birch?) stock is fairly sturdy. I was shooting pretty quip because it was dark , cold and I had a rechargeable spotlight. It seemed to shoot every bullet good. Looks like it has some potential. I haven’t played with it that much and it only shoots up to 100 grains. I was using a 2x-7 Redfield wideview. A better scope and I could aim better (plus it was night). I think it has a chrome-lined barrel and the rifling looks different. Anybody know about this?
