    I bought my wife a pro with the thumbhole stock and the first time I took it out it was one fantastic shooter. Next time not quite as good, I reckon it was having a bad day or I was. I settled in with the 295gr power belts over 90gr of RS and it shoots this real fine.

    I have an Optima Elite. The only difference is the Bergarra barrel. It's a sweet shooting gun.

    I have the CVA Optima Pro I got about 4-5 years ago. I shot hole in hole groups today with the TC 250gr Shockwaves using 90gr Triple 7.

    Love mine!
