CVA Wolf & 240gr XTPs
Still trying to find the sweet load. Been shooting 90gr ffg Goex and not getting good accuracy, so this evening I tried 80gr, 100gr, and 110gr loads.
Still not great, but the best was 2" using 100gr of Goex (at 100 yards). I could deer hunt with that load, but I'd like to find something better. (80gr was almost 5", 90gr was 2½", and 110gr opened back up to 2½") The bullets/sabots came in a pre-packaged plastic case from the rack of the local WalMart, and the combo loads fairly easy in the Wolf. I was swabbing with a "spit patch" and a dry patch between each shot and loading didn't become noticeably more difficult until I had shot over 10 rounds. I think I'll look for a tighter fitting combo! Probably order some 250gr Barnes Expanders to try. They've been a pretty tight fit in all the inlines I've shot in the past. |
I never had a CVA that didn't shoot the "Pre Packaged" 240 gr XTP's with great accuracy. True I have never owned a Wolf nor have I tried Goex for Powder in a CVA. Have you ever tried Pyro? Like I commented in your other post all the CVA's I ever owned shot the 240gr XTP's great, mostly with 110gr's of Pyro RS and the others with 2 50gr Regular Pyro Pellets.

Not sure about the CVA's but my Omega will shoot most sabots with decent groups using 2-777 pellets. The only thing it doesn't shoot consistantly is powerbelts. Never had much luck with them out any of my ml rifles.
