IN. thats the old not up to date manual. You need to look at the Optima/Wolf manual combo and scroll down to page 7.

CVA recommends a minimum of 50 grains, by volume, of blackpowder or blackpowder substitute in your .45 or .50 caliber muzzleloader. The maximum load in CVA breakaction guns, and any other CVA in-line rifle designated as a “Magnum” is 150 grains by volume. This maximum load is generally known as the “magnum” load and is best suited for pelletized powder due to the more efficient burning characteristics of the powder pellets. Magnum loads of loose powder may be shot but are not recommended because of their inefficient and incomplete burning of the powder. Some bullet designs depend on the thrust of the powder charge to expand, or obdurate, the bullet inside the bore for best accuracy. Loads under 50 grains cannot be depended on to do this. In many cases lighter bullets are more sensitive to this than heavier bullets and often require heavy powder charges to produce the best accuracy. For those who wish to shoot moderate powder charges of 90 to 120 grains the heavier bullets generally give better results. sorry wrong link.......doesn't say you can't use 150grains loose, just says it is not recommended.....correct link below http://www.cva.com/pdfs/Optima-Wolf%...n%20Manual.pdf |

got it....i think you mean page 4.....page 7 is about sighting and mounting a scope |
Do not use saboted bullets weighing over 300 grains in your CVA rifle. Do not use lead conical bullets weighing over 400 grains in your CVA rifle. ONLY USE BLACKPOWDER RATED AS “FFG” IN YOUR CVA BREAK ACTION RIFLE Hmmm i still see restrictions i dont have with my others and they shoot fine in them. :D Hell a 400gr is just getting started with a 50cal conical. :p |

BUT because of the poor ability to burn that amount of powder. |

All CVA Break-Action In-Lines are capable of handling a "magnum" powder charge of up to 150-grains when using pelletized powder (typically charges of loose powder exceeding 110 grains by volume will not fully burn in the barrel). Such "magnum" loads should never be fired in other CVA In- Lines that do not feature the one-piece Monoblock barrel design. From a cva owners manual..... Also does not list BH209 as a safe propellant for cva barrels....and states the max load for looase powder in 100gr. and only 150gr. loads in pellet form..... http://www.cva.com/pdfs/CVA%20Optima...arr%20Book.pdf |
I think i proved my point and you guys from HIS forum played right into my hands. Sooner or later you will figure it out. LOL

That's not going to work. We know you by now.
The turnip truck just went by, but I didn't fall off it. |
