I shoot a CVA and I sleep good at night- no worries here. They did have that recall in the mid-90's, but other than that, I haven't heard of any problems. Their quality has gotten much, much better than it used to be, so I would have no worries about buying a new CVA. If it was used, I would check to see if it was included in that recall. If not, just use reasonable powder charges- 100 grains or less. There's no real need to use more than 100 grains anyways.
Also, Randy Wakeman who wrote the article hates CVA and has been on a vendetta against them for years. I'm not saying that he's making things up, I'm just saying that he is very biased on this issue.
