CVA Wolf loads help?
 

Once again...I couldn't help myself from the $149 black blued cabelas special. I have a scoped omega and scoped accura and want to keep this little wolf unscoped for now. Perhaps a brush gun or shooter for my son out to 50 yards or so with the OEM optic sights. Any favorite loads? I was thinking 90 grains or so with SST or XTP. Thanks for the help

I have hte Wolf, and it is a great liitle shooter. I shoot 80 grains of Triple 7 Powder, with a 295 Hollow Point Powerbelt.

The SST is very accurate and for hunting if you want a bonded bullet tha Bonded Shock Wave the same weight will shoot the same POI.

Although I much prefer side locks I do have a Wolf that my grandson gave me for my 70th birthday. Mine does best with 85 grains of Pyro RS and the Horanady 44-300 HP/XTP sabots. Horanady doesn't market them anymore but our hardware store had fifteen boxes that weren’t selling and let me have them for five bucks a box. It does almost as well with 80 grains of RS and 250 gain CVA Slick Loads. Two years my youngest boy took a 14 point buck at 180 yards using the Horanadys with my Wolf with open sights. After that he sold his T/C Omega and bought his own Wolf So far this year he has taken 26 hogs, he lives in Texas, and filled his deer tags with it last season. He uses Horanady 45-300 sabots and swears by both the gun and the Horanadys.

100gr BH209, CCI 209 Mag primers with the 250gr Powerbelt Aerolite and the 250gr Thor, as well as the 300gr traditions fullbore. 260GR Harvester Scorpion PT Gold in the mmp24 sabots.

90 grains of 777, TC superglide sabot, & 250gr gold dot.

.40 cal 200 grain XTP, MMP .50/.40 sabot, 70 grains T7 FFFG. Very accurate, recoil is like shooting a .410 shotgun with field loads.

OOPS...I think that bullet has been discontinued.

Yep, it has. Sorry.
It was a good group though.

I know how you feel. I'm a real SUCKER for a dirt cheap muzzle loader.

Very good info...thanks guys. Pretty impressive about the 14 pt @ 180 yds with open sight wolf.
