Self serving? What do I get out of this? Anybody with two brain cells knows Randy is full of it. Why would I believe anything he says?

Answer a question honestly. Why did you post it?

You've moved from condescending to sarcasm. What can we expect next?

you do know that randy works for that website as an editor right? LOL. Other writers on there as well shoot cva and have nothing but good things to say about them.

toby bridges when knight let him go, started a smear campaign against knight stating that he was sorry he ever recommended them to folks because they were low quality junk. He now shoots Traditions.

I don't think you really know wakemans past.

Do you know wakeman HATES powerbelt bullets? YET I can show you ( If i can find the post) where he clearly states that the powerbelt bullet is nothing more than just a slightly under sized conical with a plastic base to hold it in the bore tight and that theres nothing wrong with a powerbelt.

Never take a writers thoughts to heart, there will always be something behind that writer for saying or writing what he or she does.

He stated he's shot thousands of Powerbelts, and loves them. This was on old forum posts. Now, that he gets paid to bash CVA Powerbelts are junk.

Um yes Pedersoli does. Do you have evidence to prove otherwise? Its a law in Italy that all must be tested and proofed.

In compliance with the Italian law for the guns production and sale, all the guns must go through the firing tests at the Banco Nazionale di Prova (National Proof House) in Gardone Valtrompia according to the C.I.P rules. The high pressure firing test is made to all the guns whether they are muzzle loading or breech loading, and it is one of the most sophisticated of qualifications tests, involving not only actual overload firing tests but also over 40 inspections for dimensional changes which would indicate the slightest flaw.
My Pedersoli Ovation was test fired. I bought it new in the box. The fouling appeared to be a non corrosive test load.

BTW do you have a link to a CVA/Bergara/Dikar inline ML distributor in Spain? I found the Apex but no ML barrel was listed. I know of a member in Spain that cant seem to find them. He can only find Traditions and Pedersoli.

LOL! Cause I'm on the payroll. I'm seriously joking but you'll run w/it anyway. All you have is an arguments. Anyone w/2 brain cells can see that. Different person, different day. Glad you have it figured like Garp.

Pedersoli does a lot of business in europe, they have the proof house close by which makes sense for them to get it done and over with.

No clue, they normally run under the spanish names when selling in europe. I don't really care about whats sold in europe as i never plan to hunt or live there.
