Don’t take this the Wrong way, but I’m gonna Rant for a Minute
I immediately say QLA is likely your problem, In fact i would bet on it!! TC’s QLA Ruined me from ever Trusting such a Thing, I had a TC Hawken, and a New Englander with QLA Muzzles, Both Shot ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE, The Worst I have ever Shot in my Life. It’s a wonder that I didn’t give up on the Hobby before Realizing what the Problem was? I hear that CVA is supposed to be better? But truth is, I wouldn’t spend a Dime on Even their Paramount Rifle Due to it having Their Form of QLA (Bullet Guiding Muzzle) I cannot for the Life of me Understand Why a Co. would do such a Thing to the Muzzle of a Rifle??? There is ABSOLUTELY NO BENEFIT from it, ONLY NEGATIVE. I want my Rifling to the Crown, the ONLY Way i will Have it
I have walked by SEVERAL Nice Old TC Hawken’s at Pawn Shops that Had QLA Muzzles, in fact i look at the Muzzles first, if i see a QLA I don’t even Bother looking at the Price Tag, Whatever it is? It’s to much!
There’s my Rant on QLA’s
I DESPISE EM!!!
Until you remove the QLA Muzzle, I would advise AGAINST the Use of an Over Powder Wad, Even Though I ABSOLUTELY Swear by the Use of them, I found they WORSENED Groups BADLY due to the QLA. I watched Bullets Plow through the Ground a few Feet in Front of the Target, And other Shots were not even Findable? No idea where they went? I’m not convinced we were safe standing behind the Gun? That Bad!
Cut that QLA off and Re-Crown, I am CONFIDENT you will see a HUGE Difference
