Default RE: what type

I just got my new $89.00 dollar CVA 209 Staghorn today. It has a 24" barrel and the 209 ignition. Of course I had to clean it and run outside to try it out. I adjusted the sights twice because it was shooting 2 inches low, but with Hornady 300 grain .45 caliber XTP's and 100 grains of loose Triple Se7en, this rifle was a dream to shoot. I could load without swabbing. This is a great shooting rifle. I still have a little more work to do tuning it, but need less to say I am happy with it. At 35 yards, sitting in a chair off shooting sticks with open sights this shot a fantastic tight group. A little more work and it will be a good hunting rifle.
