Any experience with CVA Wolf 45 cal inline?

[DESPERATE LEE]

Does any one have any experience with the CVA Wolf 45 cal inline with a 1:28 twist? Looking for loads, function reports, accuracy, and reliability. This is a low end break over but is it a reasonably good value.

I didnt know CVA made the Wolf in .45 cal. Just the Accura and Paramount

I have a barrel on the way and should be here Monday or Tuesday. I started to order a 50 but i already have 2 50's so the 45 is coming. Accually the barrel says Beartooth Magnum on it.

I had a CVA Kodiak in .45 that i wish i hadn't sold, it was 1:28 twist. It was a great gun. Needed $ for a new ML. Still trying to find another one. imho, CVA makes good barrels. Even the older ones.

Ive bought a few things from that guy on ebay. He's honest. I may pick up one of those. Looks like he has 4 left.

If i could cut one down and have it fitted to the Optima pistol i would buy them all.

Yeah i just asked him about 45 cal and he said just give him a day or two to find out and then he texted me he add them and was going to put them up and one had my name on it if i wanted it. May make a decent little deer rifle. You shoot much 45s ? Started PP my 50s and may do the same here.

IDK where he finds all that new/old CVA stock, he sure has a lot. I only shoot 45s now. I havent gotten into paper patching...yet. Im casting my own tho.

Been carrying on conversations with the guru IdahoLewis and if i can get PP to work for me i feel it might be the way to go.

Those older barrels didnt have the qla style false muzzle which some folks dont care for.

Right the 50's he has have got it but this 45 does not. If i had gotten a 50 i would have cut that off anyway.

Ive not had issue with any CVA muzzles yet. I did cut off one TC qla tho.

CVA's have not had the problem, I understand the TC's, mainly the older ones have.

I cut one off without even checking if it was ok. I just didnt want to bother with it.
