RE: CVA question
Both are discontinued models that have been replaced by upgraded models with new names. They are both serviceable MLs with inconsistent range reports/inconsistent triggers. Some are fantastic shooters... some have been wrapped around trees....lol.

RE: CVA question
T7 is right.I have a cva magbolt which is same as hunterbolt I think. When i first got it I could not hit a gallon jug at 100 yards.I kept playing with it and finally got it to shoot 1" groups at 100 yards and 2-3" groups at 150 yards.I bedded the stock and finally found a bullet/powder combination that worked.I have a buddy that bought one and never had a problem and it shoots great.Mine will not shoot the powerbelts they scatter every where.

RE: CVA question
I have a hunter bolt .50 and really have no complaints except the finish on the barrel is not very durable. I get about 2" groups at 100 yards using 295 gr. hollow point power belts and (2) 50 gr pellets of pyrodex.

RE: CVA question
Depending on the price of the CVA rifles, there are some other rifles out there right now that I might lean more towards. I just have read some excellent reports on them and think they are a better value for the money. But I will not talk down a CVA. I own a Staghorn Magnum and it is a great shooting rifle. Good luck.
