It said due to the lack of black horn 209 and large rifle primers is why they stopped production of the paramount.sounds to me like they (CVA) are aware of the negative feedback their Paramount line is getting and have ceased production because of that,
you can put lipstick on a pig but it is still a pig. They must have finally realized their folly and quit production
I almost pulled the trigger on a Paramont but luckily I was persuaded to go the Knight route. This is why I won't continue to shoot BH209 after my supply is exhausted. I thought it was expensive when it first came out. Now its ridiculous. Even with a 100 gr charge by weight (150 volume), with a 10 oz canister you get just under 44 loads. That's over $2 a shot not counting the bullet and primer. Reduce that charge to 85 gr by weight (120 volume) you're still over $1 a shot plus bullets and primer. I can get by just as good with Pyrodex or Tripple 7 or until my 10+ lb of Black MZ runs out and I find I usually get better accuracy with either one of these.LRPs are easier to find than 209s around here, and yesterday my local ML shop has 3 BH209 sitting on the shelf. 89.99.
THAT........They just need an excuse to get out from underneath all the negativity surrounding the horsecrap borers and the bullets the came up with to address that issue. All without admitting that they f'd up.
Which is reason #147 why CVA/BPI are !They just need an excuse to get out from underneath all the negativity surrounding the horsecrap borers and the bullets the came up with to address that issue. All without admitting that they f'd up.
