"CVA Accura - 416R stainless barrel, cast aluminum frame, super trigger.
600 grains of Triple7 behind a 444 grain PowerBelt will probably blow the barrel though.

That load would be more likely to break your shoulder while creating a spectacular fire ball.
Good luck with whatever you get and make sure you report back on how it shoots.

Thanks for the input.It looks like it's gonna be the CVA Accura. It felt the best to me. Now I gotta decide on whether I want the black/blue model or the camo/ss(without the thumbhole).

Now the bad news and a reason to look at one of the newer Muzzleloaders. I have never cleaned this gun faster than 20 minutes, the first cleaning after not doing it for a while takes me nearly an hour!!
Thats what it took tonight, what a PITAss.

I don't think you'll be happy with the Accura... I mean... It doesn't say "Omega" on it ANYWHERE! I know, I looked! No Sir, I think you ought to leave that Accura thing on the shelf for someone who doesn't know any better. [8D]
Just kidding, the Accura would be a great choice. I like the feel of them too.
