Talk about fast shipping. On March first I phoned Cabela's and ordered an Accura. I was told it would take a couple of days to be shiped from Cabela's and not to expect it for 5 to 8 days. 45 minutes ago the UPS truck pulls up with my Accura in hand.

For the next several days I will be reading the owners manual inside and out. I will also be getting what is needed to shoot my new ml.

Awesome! Cabelas has always had awesome shipping time. You will love the Accura. Any idea on what you will be shooting out of it?

Cableas service on anything you purchase from them is excellent.

In Jan. Cabelas had $100 off the Optima. Then I rec'd a $30 off coupon on orders over $100. $130 off I couldn't resist, so I bought the stainless, camo'd thumbhole stock Optima. They had it to my door in 3days. I've shot it, and absolutely love the gun. So I can only imagine how nice the Accura must be!!

The owners manual suggests shooting powerbelts, but I am open for suggestions. Breachplug suggested using Thompson 240 grain XTP Mags with either Pyro RS Powder or Pyro Pelets. I am leaning towads BPs suggestion.
The Optima is a fine quality rifle, in fact I was considering getting the new 2010 when Cabela's put the 09 Accura on sale for $50 more + free shipping.
Soon as the range near my house opens back up I will swiss cheese some paper. Right now I am going to have to use open sights until the budget allows for a scope.
Thanks for the replys. BP I will deffiently be asking qustions and thanks for offering your advice.

Im shooting Powerbelts right now out of the Accura. American Pioneer 2f & 3 along with the 150gr Super Sticks. The 245-295-270 plat and 338 plat all shoot excellent.

Thanks for the info. It sounds like I have some experimenting to do.
At the very least I have two very good set ups to use.

Is ther any bullets to stay away from?

MountainDevil54

good question. I havent shot a bullet yet that wasnt accurate in the accura. Conical and sabots to be exact. Another bullet you MUST try is the 250gr thor! Thats one hell of a bullet in the accura
