I have just worked up a load in my cva optima. It took me a little while with some diffrent bullets and powder types but i think i have finally got the right combo. There are a couple issues though. I'm using bh209 cci primers with hornaday 300 grn ssts. Most accurate load i have found yet. But the problem i'm haveing is hang fires. I was out at the range today gun was clean so i fired off 2 primers to make sure everything was dry. Loaded up 90 grns of bh with the SST to just to a fouling shot and got a hang fire. The second primer set off the poweder but there was that 1 second delay in there that i have noticed after a hang. The next 3 shots where perfect though. all 3 landed in the same 1in sqr at a 100 yards I need to get a pic of the target up i was so proud. So i put the ml away for a little while and was sighting in my shot gun. 30 min or so later pulled the ml back out and was going to do some shots with 90grains of bh with barnes 250 grn splitfire t-ez and every time i tried to shoot i got a hang fire. I know that bh needs a hot primer and these are the full strenght cci's. Should i try the w209 or the remingtons. i have also heard some thing about drilling out the flash hole on the breech plug but not sure what to do there.
