TC Triumph vs CVA Accura V2?
I was all set to get a Triumph this coming week but just saw the CVA Accura V2 online. I've owned a Rem 700 and a TC Encore so far but have never even looked at the CVA's before. I guess I always thought they were cheapo's. But looking online this new gun looks like it has all the right features.
I'm planning on seeing it in person tomorrow to get the "Feel" of each.
But I see the CVA add's the Hammer spur, Thumbhole, fluted & stainless barrel that the TC does not come with.
I tried to do some searching online and on here but no reviews.
Anyone have anything to say about these guns side by side?

We have the V2 plain jane with the soft touch black stock and the SS barrel. 2" groups today with it at 100 yards with open sights and my brother behind the wheel.
They dont have it listed on the site but the V2 has a user adjustable trigger.
Handle them both and figure out which you like the best. The V2 has the Bergara barrel as well
Just back it out all of the way for the lightest trigger pull.

I know the triumph is better than the Omega, but I have owned and loved my Omega for 3 years. It has kept my freezer full....but I bought the old Accura from cabelas over the winter (stainless/ realtree for $329) and absolutely love it. Shoulders much nicer and is remarkably accurate out of the box. I don't shoot that often so I shoot 777 pellets. 3 30 grns and a 245 xtp is silly accurate at 100 yards in the accura. I think CVA has really upped their game recently. I'm sure the V2 is even better. The trigger on my accura is noticeably better than the omega. Good luck

I'm still struggling with this choice.
CVA - Full Stainless Bergara barrell, EZ removable fully threaded breech plug, Hammer spur, crisper trigger, thumbhole stock, fluted barrel, no crazy relocking mechanizm when shutting the barrel.
Everything tells me to go for the CVA except for the 1/2 lb of extra weight and the CVA name and reputation.
Why can there never be a gun that has it ALL?

Personally and for myself only.... I would not get either of those two guns... I do currently have a Triumph (plane jane model)
My first choice would be, if it is something you need to do immediately, I would get a SS Omega. I think it is a better life time gun... I also have a SS Omega that is really a good gun.
But, what I would really do if you have the time to wait... is wait for the new offereing(s) from Knight. They are going to be worth the wait.

I have 14 muzzle loaders besides the Triumph and have had many others, the Triumph is the most accurate with the widest range of loads. If I could only keep one it would be the Triumph; but I do wish that they would make a SS version.
