I bought a CVA Optima last year and only shot is about 10 times Manily just for fun. I have been shooting t-7 pellets with 295gr power belts, 245gr power belt aero tips and 250gr Horndaylow drag sabot sst. I haven't really had time to sight it in to much and i was planing on putting a scope on it also. I bought the one pice scope base for it. Which loads have been working the best in this type of muzzle loader? I am looking for some deer leveling peformance. I Hunt in a shot gun only zone so i have use a 12ga 870 with a rifled barrel and sabot slugs for a few years now with great results. But its time for a change and try the muzzle loader durning gun season and our muzzle loader season in wisconsin you can not use any scope thats more then 1X power so i bought a set of quick detach scope mounts also for it.
