    proven load

    I read and experimented with my Accura V2 LR, and came away with a few things that I'm glad a learned. Working a load in the Accura was easy in the 10g increments and switching to 5g when it got close. Working a load up with BH209 was more expensive than using PyrodexRS Once the correct...

    firing pin shim kits for Cva Accura and Optima

    I tried using the rubber washers talked about all over the boards to stop the blackening of the primer, but it just melted and caused issues the first time, can you report back why you want to shim, and the success you have resolving that issue when you do shim? I've put a few hundred shots...

    Shimming a CVA QRBP with Rubber O-Rings

    I’m wondering if I did this all wrong. I tried the McMaster Carr rubber o-rings on my CVA plugs because both my black horn QRBP and the standard QRBP have blowby/ blowback. And it just melted, there was an awful melted rubber smell. I tried seating it a couple of different ways and after firing...

    Sabots Do Make A Difference

    I’ve got a new accura v2 lr and I found the Hornady 300 sst low drag over 80g volume bloackhorn/ 112.5g RS to be touching at 50yds. The no excuses 300g boattail with the red sabot is also right there with the same load. And is waaaaay cheaper per shot. I’ve now moved out to 100yds and today...

    Accura V2 on the way

    That's a great call. I was shooting the 300g Hornady SST Low Drag over 80g BH209 and 112g Pyrodex well and just got a good selection of No Excuses and so far tested with excellent groups the 300g No Excuses sabot.

    BC of 50 cal 460 grain no excuses

    Would the 420g and the 460g have the same BC?

    Wet Patch Question

    I recently realized that my blow-back and misfires are being caused by excess moisture in the breech area left by my wet patch between shots. I feel like a fool, but I'm glad I figured it out - mostly by examining the powder I pushed out and realizing it was caked. I bought the CVA range kit...

    Full bore lead conical in a CVA

    Awesome Info! thank you very much. I've ordered the sizing pack (which happily is the 420g), and emailed Dave to see if he's played the 30" barrel on the Accura V2 and had any starting points.

    Full bore lead conical in a CVA

    I've been trying to develop a load of full bore lead in my CVA Accura and am running into problems reducing the size of my group. I always start my session with 4 300g Hornady SST since they give a tight group and I can judge how the conditions are that day. So far the closest group I've had is...

    CVA Plains Rifle - Pydrodex load questions

    Hey, which breech type and primer combo did you settle on for the rifle? Are you still using Pyrodex RS?

    I just googled the pro shot stainless gas port brush and there are a few options. Do you have a recommendation for the brush you like? I have a CVA breech plug. Thanks!

    dry patch getting stuck help

    I had this issue the very first time I went to the range. Fortunately, with an in-line it was easy to fix. When I went home I read a researched and bought the little worm discussed in the video below. I use Pyrodex, and my issue was not using the wet patch well enough to clean the fouling at...

    Price check on Accura MR

    I bought my Accura LR on the CVA website directly and saved some dollars with their web special on the nitride finish and fore end grip. It is still $449.

    nikon inline xr muzzleloader scope discontinued?

    The Nikon Prostaff P3 Muzzleloader 3-9x40 BDC 300 replaced it, and (if you like it) is much cheaper (even free shipping) from classic firearms than anywhere else I could find. They have a typo in the item title so I checked the Nikon part number and the UPC to make sure I was buying what I...

    Arizona Newcomer

    Hi! After years of chatting with my work buddy about his Muzzleloaders elk hunts I decided to get an Accura V2 LR Nitride. It arrived a couple of weeks ago and I got back from my 3rd trip from the range today. I’ve been reading some great books, blogs, and articles but love the forums and...

    My new CVA Optima V2 Nitride

    I just got my Accura V2 LR 2 weeks ago and have been to the range trying to develop loads. My PowerBelt’s were erratic and I tried working up from 80g to 120g Pyrodex at. 50yds and couldn’t get a good group Hornady 300g SST low drag over 90 blackhorn 209 (or 110 Pyrodex RS) worked great. It’s...
