Semisane is getting such a large collection of rifles he's going to have to build a new gun rack.. maybe he can use that frozen old nanner tree he has for the wood.

I stopped saying I am not getting anymore. Every time I do I come across a deal too good to pass up. So I will say I do not PLAN to purchase anymore..

CVA doesn't have the muzzleloader version pictured just yet, so here is my "artist's conception" of what it will look like

The muzzleloader forearm will probably be a little longer though.

damn it I want one if that is anywhere close to what it is going to look like

Did you click the link? I think that will be a very close approximation (just mentally add a little length to the forearm). My understanding is the M/L will come as shown, but will be drilled and tapped for iron sights.

yeap, I did.

Sweet deal, slap a scope on it and your ready

Now don't go ruining that pretty gun with a scope!!

Cabelas tried to sell me mine with a cheap Pine Ridge scope on it, I actually had to argue with the manager that they'd advertised it with peep sights and were obligated to sell it to me so equipped in order to get them to go switch them back...had to wait 2 hours!!

I'm considering putting one of those Weaver rails with an integrated peep on mine, then adding a scout-style 2-7X or 4X scope on Warne quick-release rings. That way I could stop carrying my X7 AND my long-range rig when I go out as my hunting area is mixed fields and woods so I always need to be prepared for longer shots...which is why it took me 3 years to score with the X7.
