Not sure how we got onto this when it was about you guys shooting unapproved powder charges?

CVA allows 150gr Loose powder max.
Not according to the manual i had for my Accura or my email to CVA. 100gr MAX and 110gr max on the Apex. Which are fine. Three pellet loads are the issue in a gun you said was only tested to 28k PSI.

Only 150gr equivalent PELLET loads are approved yet the numbers dont jive.

Like i said have A CVA rep come here and say it is ok to shoot 150gr of loose powder including BH209 and give the actual proof testing data from the proofing house.

That will answer all the questions and it will be in writing.
