Dat's a real purdy piece der Semi! Pretty fast twist though don't you think? Can't wait to see some reports.
I did the same thing but....
I got a NIB CVA Optima V2 at an auction this weekend. Blue w/black synthetic stock & fiber optic sights. I got it for a song @ $138. My cousin dropped by and fell in love with it. He laid 7 $20 bills on the table and said I want it. Since I have an Accura V2 and don't really need it I said OK. Its pretty bad when you buy a new gun and don't even get to shoot it!!!

Beautiful gun. I would love to have one like it but I can't see iron sights anymore.

Hatfield made caliber specific round ball twists for their guns; 1:32 for 36 caliber, 1:48 for 45 caliber, and 1:70 for 50 caliber. We'll see how it does. Might even try some sabots with .40 XTPs and some of Ed's 350's just for kicks.

Got the same problem. If I keep this one there might be a peep in its future.

Semi, that's a good looking rifle. I love those classic lines of that rifle and that's a mighty purdy stock on that thing. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do mine.
