Man oh man, two years ago I bought a 220 camo/stainless after hearing the rumors floating around about them. (IL resident) I have hunted with a CVA Optima for years and was very happy with it, but I couldnt help myself. I put a Nikon SlugHunter 2-7 on it with a DNZ one piece base and with Remington 3" accutips it shoots better than some of my rifles! Im talking a 2-2.5" group of 5 shots at 200 yards. Last year I shot a doe at 183 yards across a cut bean field, she didnt take a single step. I cant say enough about these guns! I wish Id have bought one when they first came out.
