The buttstock is a little shorter than the previous models so that probably accounts for the additional weight savings.

Now, now Magic, Muley has been making more sense lately. I guess that medication to quiet the voices in his head is beginning to kick in. In fact I think I may be actually getting used to him being on here and reading his posts with interest.

That levels the field quite a bit. Not that I wouldn't like to try one out but that places it up there with TC and Knight cost wise.
Chet i agree with you 100 % and what impresses me the most about the concept of a mountain M/L rifle is, CVA came up with the idea on there own .it also comes with a adjustable trigger.any company has to provide products that there potential customers want. light weight C/F rifles are in high demand in this country and IMHO that will cross over into the M/L world also.Knight made the inline famous and T/C followed with the pivot action and then the break action. both company's need to be constantly researching new ideas and be in tune with what the people want.unfortunately sticking to tradition can sometimes lead to failure..

One thing i noticed is i don't feel the need to switch shoulders back and forth all day, to relieve pain.

Instead of hitting the gym, my suggestion is hit the range, and practice shooting them light rifle in similar conditions as would be hunting.

My suspicion about this CVA rifle, is it will be priced high end, thus i won't be interested. It is impossible for me to get past the silly belief, a foreign made rifle should be less expensive than one made in USA.
Just came back from the range. My 8 1/2 lb .270 is as steady as a rock.

Maybe someday you'll learn to mind your own business. I wasn't talking to you. I was responding to Ron, not chaded.

Right or wrong, my opinion is the craftsman in the USA gets a bigger piece of the pie, than the craftsman in Spain. This is the reason i cannot with clear conscience, purchase a Rifle made in Spain for the same price or more, as a rifle made in USA. Of course my opinion is colored by the fact that i myself worked with tools manipulated by my hands, and this is how i fed my family, and my pension.
