I dont know much, but i know CVA makes quality stuff, and when i was lookin into gettin a new muzzy i considered CVA, but ended up with the Remington Genesis.

But i think you made a quality choice there :thumb

I've got an old CVA percussion but don't know anything about this one. What is that in front of the trigger guard? Looks like a magazine, though I know it isn't (???)

 See, I learn something new every day! I believe that is illegal in CO, if my reading comprehension has improved any over the years. Thought I read something about it on the DFW website.

They are not legal in CO for elk hunts nor are scopes,pelleted powder, and saboted or belted bullets. Don,t know about other game. NM has alot of muzzle loader restrictions on elk hunts also.Just check the regs carefully and you won,t have any problems. I bought a CVA 50cal cap lock 15 years ago and I still use it from time to time. I,ve been good to it and its been good to me. Good luck on your hunts and carry some xtra batteries for it.

i have poored my own powder and used a ball and to tell you the truth. i think you hit an animal with the ball in the wrong area you better be lucky. i prefur the pellets and the sabots for quick humane kills. IMO. and for beginners its much better
