If you go to Randy Wakeman.Com he has a new article called the CVA menace where he goes into a lengthy tie raid on the CVA's. Sorry, I have not figured out yet how to paste a link on this forum as of yet.

have to say, it sounds like the load moved. It would be interesting to see how the barrel blew and where.

Guy said it blew up under the scope.

ALL muzzle loaders are dangerous...You are making a pipe bomb so you have to be carefull...

Frankly, some folks are more accident prone to others, be it a car, ladder, hammer, chain saw or other tools that we use...You must be careful and know what you are doing, or you might blow your head off...

Why can't we put this thing to bed once and for all? Toby Bridges managed to blow uo a Savage ML-10(RW's favorite) Sako has a recall on a batch of rifles with bad barrels.I witnessed a S&W .38 blow the top off the cylinder on the first shot ever fired out of it.I saw a Chevy motor that sucked a valve with less than 50 miles on it(no groove in the valve stem for the keepers) Not all CVA's are dangerous or defective,justlike all Savage,Smith and Wesson or Chevy's are not. RW is a pot stirring egomaniac with an agenda.A legend in his own mind,who if questioned about anything will attack who ever dared to dissagree with him. Been there-he called me a Cretin.

He is also in the pockets of an ambulance chasing lawyer from Tulsa, OK.

Met a guy who claimed to know something about that case. He says the man used smokeless powder in his CVA.

The only two muzzleloaders I own. so far, are both CVAs. Never had a problem with either one of them - other than the BS sights supplied. This Wakeman guy - IMHO, doesn't know his a## from a hole in the ground. Without a doubt, he is in the back pocket of someone's britches. I've taken the time (wasted) to read some of his so called "articles" - nothing but double standards and contridictions. From what I've been able to deduce, the so called barrel explosion was not a result of a bad barrel, but from some idiot neophyte exceeding the company recommended load (ie: 150 gr loose powder rather than 100 gr loose powder). Too bad so many people in this country can not comprehend what they read and the legal tort system has gotten so out of hand.

Sorry for the rant, but it just really pisses me off. [:@]
