Greetings from South Dakota

Hello Folks,

I am brand new to muzzleloading. I bought a CVA Optima V2 and am looking forward to my first hunt (season opens in 10 days).
Lots of information to digest and I am looking forward to learning from your experience. I really like what I have seen so far and the options for different types of ammo and powder.
Thanks in advance for answering all the questions you've likely heard a dozen times or more (and I will try to find the answers on existing threads first).

Welcome aboard. Good luck on your first season.

Thank you kindly. Looking forward to it. I haven't fired the Optima yet and I'm already having fun. Might be taking out here shortly just to give it a whirl.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.

Welcome to the forum...I have a V2 and shoot 100 grains BH209 (by weight), 300 grain Hornady XTPs (non-mag), Harvester green crush rib sabots and Winchester W209 (blue box) primers. Works great! Accurate load, very clean primers and reliable.

100 grains (by weight) is a really stout load there Hal.

100 grains weighed / not volume (70 grains). Pretty sure you knew what I meant.

100 grains volume (weighed 70 grains) .
