XLT should be the one to buy if you go with traditions.

Well the Omega and the Black Diamond are usually good shooters, it often depends on how good a load you woork up and how good a shooter you are, a fried of mine ask me to shoot his Omega the other day to see if I could tell what was wrong with it; it put 5 shots in 1.5 inches first try , I ask what wrong with that ,he said why can I only get 3.5 inch groups, I watched him shoot and told him why and he would not believe me.
So if you are looking for more accuracy look at your hole card before you spend your money, if you want better as far as a stock designed to work better with a scope or a dream to clean or a nice 3 pound trigger then look at the Triump an Omega is the next best but I would not trade my Triumph for two Omega's.

For the money I think the CVA Optima is a great gun.

For me I would find a Knght Disc extreme.....

I love the Thumbhole stock on my Omega SS. Handles exceptionally well.

Is that wanting tobe under$400 for the ML only or does that include optics, base, rings and boresighting?
[ul][*]T/C Triumph or Omega. (While I really like my two Omega's, if were buying new today I would say that the Omega while having the advantage over the Black Diamond witha sealed breech and a greater array of optional accessories (stocks and such) the Omegais not the leap in design as is the Triumph).[*]Knight Rollingblock, Vision or Revolution.[*]The Traditions Pursuit Pro XLT is a very well handling ML. Not fired one though. Make sure the trigger is not too heavy, although the company will adjust the trigger to 4 pounds for a fee plus shipping. Sort of lame in my view as the trigger should be 3-4 pounds to begin with.[*]NEF Pardner or Sidekick. Pretty nice ML's and a reputation for decent quality.[*]CVA's if you wish although I would not buy one.[/ul]
Of allthe ML's that have come and gone from my collection, my Black Diamond is one of the one's that I always have regretted selling.

I have a good scope for it already and my local gun dealer usualy bore sights it for free for me. My gun is a good shooter but I am mainly wanting something that will be easier to clean.
