I was shooting 80gr pyrodex RS , .15 TC wormhole patch and a .530 round ball at 25 yards. Not impressed at all but the patches are 99.9% to blame.

I love the trigger on this rifle. I guess it to be Maybe 1 1/2lb pull with the set trigger. Crisp and smooth.
Rifle was made in 1996. I am unsure of twist so i will be shooting CVA an email and see what they have to say.
 
GOT IT!!! I knew it was those darn patches! Today i used a .018 pillow tick patch as a buffer and then loaded my normal .015 wormhole patch and ball. Its ready for 58 yards tomorrow morning.
