    Newbie In Need of Help Please

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please This is worth reading for the Remington ( new models) 700 ULTRA MZL. The writer Chuck Hawks/ Randy Wakeman is also on You Tube shooting Remington and TC Pro Hunter. Worth the time. http://www.chuckhawks.com/remington_ult ... r_faq.html

    Newbie In Need of Help Please

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please I totally understand. In all of my CVA's V2's 130 grains of BH 209 and in my TC Pro Hunter 110 grains of BH 209. I've shot 25-30 times without cleaning while maintaining 1/4" or less groups. In my Remington 700 ML I shoot 135 grains of BH 209. Don't shoot any...

    Newbie In Need of Help Please

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please Well I did as I said and went to the range. At least a little Crow served up is appropriate. :oops: I found with easy load sabots with a witness mark and 2 pellets my CVA V2 I got VERY tight groups. But With the Barns yellow sabot because they load very snug...

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please What you say makes a lot of sense. Most hunters don't think about that, guess that includes me as well. Going to check that out, Triple 7 red dot. That comes from leaning on the charge to compress to insure no delayed ignition. With Black Horn that is not a...

    Newbie In Need of Help Please

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please I wanted to say that what I have discussed is purely from a hunting prospective. I am not a competition shooter, if we had it around here I would be. So I totally accept what you guy say, not my world. I do have a question though. Pellets have you found as I...

    Newbie In Need of Help Please

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please Nothing you said I disagree with. I know Remington recommends 4 50 grain pellets. BH believe me the BH 209 with 135 grains give consistent less than one inch groups at 300 yards, still working that. Ignition with MG 209 primers no problem. You guys have me...

    Newbie In Need of Help Please

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please Boy has Knight Changed, appearance and PRICE. Wow, beautiful rifle very pricey . Reading what you get for the price looks very attractive. MOA at 200 out of the box. Competition works wonders. Almost makes me wish I had been aware of knight before I got my...

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please Thought you may enjoy this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3AJGOJUgQA Also if you use the correct cleaning tools you don't need to pull the breech plug. Use regular center fire rifle cleaner for BH 209 ( NOT WATER ) Water works for 777 very well all tho there...

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please Dang It I knew I misspelled his name. No argument about the barrels. Just stating what I know and what I have used. The brands you mention I wouldn't buy, but that's just me. Not bad rifles just don't like them. Don't like Chevy, or Ford that's why I drive...

    Newbie In Need of Help Please

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please Shawn T is correct about the scope. Top end TC's are very good rifles, but, the CVA I believes come with a scope or you can get it with scope mounted and I believe Bore sighted (?????). Top end CVA's guarantee 1" MOA @ 100 yards out of the box. I believe the...

    Newbie In Need of Help Please

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please The top CVA rifles have Spanish made and are machine lapped ( Bargara Barrels ). The assisted designer is Bob Schelling ( if I spelled his name correctly) . Bob is a world noted barrel maker. Known for long range barrels. Not doubting what you said but the...

    In that unit there are a ton of ambush places if you know where they are. a good place is crossing from I believe 2A across the road. You hunt there you know the road. Might be 3B. Don't matter a lot because all three are in that hunt. Otherwise find the back road in those unis close to the...

    Newbie In Need of Help Please

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please I know I am going to get some backwash over this but here it goes. First get away from PELLETS. I know there are a lot of guys that use them because they are easy to use, I got it. However they are INCONSISTENT. Here why if you reload center fire you know...

    Hello from Canada

    You will love your CVA V2 I have 2 V2's and a CVA original all 50 cal and a 50 cal TC Pro Hunter all have the Spanish barrels. If you go to Black Horn 209 you won't go back. Very clean, I have shot as many as 30 shots without cleaning. You can actually shoot so fast that the barrel will heat up...

    Newbie In Need of Help Please

    Re: Newbie In Need of Help Please Wow a lot of variables. From the groups tho spread way too much. I would suggest the following. 1. Check the scope mounts and rings. if that is all good, but highly suspect. 2. Check you bullets, powder charge consistent if using pellets the charge will not...
