OK, I guess I've decided!
I just got back from a lunchtime break at Bass Pro Shop, they just got in 1 (and ONLY 1) CVA Accura 2 Stainless with a Camo thumbhole stock in stock.
I held the TC Triumph side by side with the CVA Accura V2 and here is my opinions:
Now I'll take it to the range and HOPE I don't have any regrets, but for now I'm sold on this new gun.
For all the TC fans out there, don't mis read a thing. My 209x45 and 22-250 Encore are tack drivers and will not be leaving my safe anytime soon. (See attached 100yd 109x45 and 200yd .22-250 targets for proof)
But these two guns side by side I say the CVA Accura V2 beats the TC Triumph, but the range will tell the tale.
Stay tuned.

I held the TC Triumph side by side with the CVA Accura V2 and here is my opinions:
- CVA has a full stainless barrell (BIG WIN)
- CVA has a hammer spur extender, helps during late season
- HATE the TC re-locking mechanizm to close the barrel, while the CVA opens and closes just like my TC Encore
- CVA holds better for me as the forearm is thinner and not as wide along the base as the Triumph
- CVA has a crisper and I believe lighter trigger
- And I plan on using it to hunt Elk in CO (open sights) and the CVA throws up better than the Triumph. You can tell the TC was designed to use a scope.
- I was also afraid the CVA weighed a lot more than the Triumph but honestly I could feel no difference in the 2.
Now I'll take it to the range and HOPE I don't have any regrets, but for now I'm sold on this new gun.

I owned and shot both - the real test. I have a bunch of Whites I shoot conicals with #11 caps. I wanted a rifle that shot BH209 with sabots reliably and accurately - the Triumph did this - the accura did not for me. And if they both had proformed equally, the Triumph would have won for asthetics and feel - again for me.

Took a quick picture tonight of my new .50 cal CVA. No wonder I liked it so much.
Look at this thing compared to my .45 cal Encore. Striking comparison...now I hope it shoots as good as my old .45.

if you do not like the way your scope is mounted on the cva. there is a one piece base by durasight that will fit, I have one for my cva.
