I owned a CVA traditional rifle when I was a kid. I don't remember anything about the gun other than it was a cheap hunk of junk. I shot PRB's out of it and even managed to kill some rabbits, rock chucks, and a fox.

When I got old enough to get a large caliber CF gun I gave the CVA to a guy that wanted it to hang in his house. I didn't go back to ML until I got a Knight BK 92. I still have that gun, it is a great shooting gun but it was the cheep version of the mk85.
I shot my largest mule deer with that gun.




I loaned it out to my wife's cousin a couple years ago and he killed a fantastic antelope with it.




Since then I have used nothing but TC Renegades and Hawkens with Green Mountain barrels. Green Mountain puts out a quality product and stand behind their product.

The shooting world would have to come to a complete end for me to buy a CVA. Companies have only one chance at a first impression. They blew it and that is that. I have gone on to better rifles. Ron
