Bergara barrels on CVA Optima Pro?
Hey guys! First post here. Alot of good info on this site!
What year did CVA start using Bergara for their barrels? I have a 2006 Optima Pro w/ a stainless, fluted barrel that says "MADE IN SPAIN" on it. I thouht that in 06 they started using Bergara? Could it be a bergara w/o the markings?
I know that CVA had barrel problems in the past, and after seeing all the garbage on the net about CVA past and present ( some of which I'm sure was operator error), it would be a little piece of mind and a bonus if I had a Bergara
.
Also, is anyone having any luck using BH209 out of their Optimas? If so post your load please.
Thanks in advance.

bergara has been making them for a handful of years now. Maybe since 2005-2006? i forget what year they came out in. The elkhorn pro i know just started coming out in 2008. They are pretty much going through an barrel update on most of their current models. I dont think the wolf has been done yet, probably wont be either.
