This old CVA Hawken was made back in the 1980's, the barrel probably around the same time. Well over 2,200 shots through her and never once have I run across a safety issue with ANY muzzle loader I've shot. This rifle has actually shot more powder than todays normal inline magnum loads.


Now its pretty obvious we've got some fellow here's here that WANT to start trouble and be a bunch of loud mouths about something they only know about because what they've read LOL.

When it comes to shooting CVA I believe I have a huge gain in knowledge in that department. I shot the living hell out of them before I built up my Hawken and got bitten by that bug. 5,000 shots through 3 of them in year is pretty good and I doubt I'll do that again.
