My Accura is here
Came on the big brown truck around 5:30 this afternoon, It figures that i'd get a new driver that was lost and couldnt find me earlier.
I already have 6 speed loads ready to go tomorrow * if weather holds* for 100 yards with the 245gr custom tipped powerbelt and the 338 platinum.
Amazing rifle that still has me shaking with excitement after 4 1/2 + Hours
All for $372.99 shipped from R&R Arms!
Second outing,

Congratualtions Devil. A new gun sure gets your bloodapumping. Also, you get an A+ for posting target pictures on the same day the gun was received.

RE: My Accura is here
Congratulations on your new ML. I have noticed people are replacing there Encore barrels with Bergara barrels. Is that what comes supplied with this Muzzleloader?
How much cost savings is there with this ML versus a Pro-hunter? With lay offs increasing at T/C arms will this ML hurt the future of that company? Alot of rumours flying around now, i guess time will tell.
I just noticed the price. WOW....less then four hundred delivered.

I doubt anything CVA produces will hurt T/C. T/C's marketing blitz is by far greater than any other muzzleloading company. Not saying that their products are necessarily better, just that their marketing is.

Looks like a much better design then the Pro-hunter. Can you show pictures of it apart to show how it locks up? The Knight Visionhas already made a much better design then the Encore without interchangable barrels. This CVA design looks even better. I cant believe i'm saying this about a CVA.

RE: My Accura is here
Grouse- Yes the Bergara barrel comes standard on this rifle. Its the first bergara barrel ive owned and the quality is easily seen! After those 6 shots with it yesterday i cleaned the barrel and looked down the bore and it about blinded me The rifling is so smooth a perfect looking. I can take some pics of it later on tomorrow and break things down. Today i have a lot of poles to cement in the ground and then have to fill a 100 yard sand box.
Rifle balances darn near perfectly. Im still lovin it even after i went to bed, i woke up this morning and fondled it
