Accura
 

Natchez just put the 45 cal CVA Accura on sale ($429 plus a $40 mail in).

UC...have you seen the 45s cheaper?

RE: Accura
 

CVA Accura where is it made ???????

RE: Accura
 

The CVA Accura I believe would be made in Spain.

RE: Accura
 

No, don't think I've seen them any cheaper than that - but we probably will. I may buy one in .45 if they become bargains in that caliber. I think they did make a mistake by not offering the .45 in something other than that thumbhole stock.

Can't have too many Accura(s). :D http://www.americanhunter.org/HW_main.html Notice his trigger pull weight. Kewl!!

RE: Accura
 

Crisp would be a good word for it. I had read that article in the Jan '09 issue of American Hunter. I do not see CVA distributing guns with that light a trigger weight though. Most likely done for the write up. But then I guess it would be adjustable?

RE: Accura
 

One of mine is about 1lb 10oz and the other is 1lb 11oz. His was lighter but still believable. Superb triggers.

RE: Accura
 

You have two in 50 cal?

RE: Accura
 

Yes, you must always have a spare. :D

RE: Accura
 

Underclocked,

What kind of groups do you get with your Accuras? What bullet/load combos do they seem to like? Just curious...

RE: Accura
 

Nice rigs but...WV Mountineer...you should slide a scope thru those holes.:D

RE: Accura
 

Oldman that will be my next project I gotta keep UC happy. :)

So far, I've only tried 200 grain 10mm XTPs in blue MMP 50/40 sabots and 300 grain XTPs in Harvester crushed rib 50/45 sabots. Both load great and shoot well. The 200 grainers actually shot the best probably because the sabots were just a wee bit tighter. http://i35.tinypic.com/2ic19as.jpg The 300s have done about 1.5" 3-shot groups for me. I think they could do better with some tweaking or maybe go to the MMP Short Black sabot instead of the crushed rib.

I did shoot just a few of my UC Shorts through the black one. It didn't like them but I think I had some bad alloy in the pot when I cast those. Will try some again later. Both rifles are sighted in at 100 yards with 90 grains BH209 (60.6 grains weight), 300 grain XTP inblack crushed rib sabot, and Win209 primer.

Where did you get that peep sight??? :D

When I look at the picture of that rifle.. I'm always amazed at how much these muzzleloaders have advanced in appearance and function. That rifle is beautiful, but really looks high tech. I kind of like it.
