2,740 FPS MUZZLELOADER?!?! CVA'S .40 CALIBER @ 600-YARD - DROP THE TAILGATE

  • In this episode of #DropTheTailgate, Matt "shoots" the breeze with CVA's Rick Taylor and Tony Smotherman to learn about their 2021 lineup of muzzleloading rifles. Tony cut his teeth in the muzzleloading industry with Knight Rifles, who revolutionized the modern muzzleloader by creating the first inline in 1985. Tony and Rick demonstrate CVA’s 600-yard Paramount series rifle that uses rifle primers as opposed to 209 primers, a muzzle brake, and no attached ramrod to accurately shoot 2,740 feet per second at long ranges.

    You guys are a true God send! I was labeled a felon over some bs fight for protecting my mom in FL, and they took my gun rights away and it made me depressed cuz it felt like I was castrated. Then I just moved to TX for work an learned literally last night, that after 5 years your gun rights are automatically restored here and we can have muzzleloaders and I instantly felt comforted that I can hunt my own food and protect my family. Thank you for everything y'all do, truly.

    AWESOME, I got into black powder about 8-10 years ago and in just that time the leaps made in the technology is off the charts. Now being me I found a fondness with the Buck Horn Magnum and my Bolt action then up runs QRBP, then these off rifle primers. Yes it is awesome.

    CVA was not the first to use nitride on a muzzleloader. LHR used it years before that on a rifle called the Redemption. They sold the company to T/C who renamed it Strike.

    I've got three CVA inlines, an Optima V2 LR, an old Hunterbolt magnum and just bought a Wolf, the least expensive of your whole line. My comment is about the triggers that come from the factory on the CVA Muzzleloaders. Fantastic! Even the very reasonably priced Wolf has a trigger than would be right at home on anybody's favorite long-range rifle. You don't have to do anything but think about it and the shot is off. Some have asked why someone that owns an Optima V2 LR would buy a Wolf? Well, it's light, short, handy, more like an old 30-30 to make it simple if you're hunting in thick brush where all shots are likely to be close range and may have to be fast it may be the rifle for you. Not that it won't shoot out to longer distances, It certainly will. I left the open fiber optic sights on mine and out to a hundred yards or, so they are perfectly adequate to do the job. I don't have access to the in vogue Blackhorn 209 powder in my area and it's so high priced I'm not sure I'd buy it if I could but don't let that stop you. I shoot mostly the T-7 Firestar pellets or Pyrodex pellets and they shoot plenty good with either. With the quick removable breech plugs cleanup is a fifteen-minute deal and very easy. I've found swabbing with a cleaning patch and a couple of dry patches to be more necessary with these powders as they do create a fire ring very quickly and you want that bullet all the way down on the powder for sure. Swabbing the bore just makes it easier but it can still be done even after several shots.

      I also absolutely love my Wolf! It's one of their older versions of the break-away. This gun loves to eat venison and has never let me down. I agree about the lightness and ease of carry. I would not trade it for the world. However, whatever you do, don't ever remove the three pins that hold the trigger! It's a nightmare to figure out and reassemble. Thinking about buying a newer version of the Wolf with the finger thread breech plug.

    Would you consider producing a shotgun on the Wolf action muzzleloaders for us folks who don't have a whole lot of disposable cash to spend. You have 8,10,12,16,20,28,.410 to choose from,even rifled barrel. My take is that you're missing out on a whole new market. How about wolf action rifles in .40 and.45 ,.54,.58 calibers?How about a traditional War Between the States era carbine at a reasonable price in matching .31,.36, and .44 caliber to use the same pistol rounds. How about an over and under derringer like the great gun in Eastern Europe (Hungary I think?) In .45,.50,.54 or at least import theirs? Just some ideas I would like to see happen. Thanks

    What I don't understand about muzzleloader design is why they wont make the barrel a super magnum that can take above 170 by volume. Everyone loves power. If you created a 200 grain muzzleloader with long distance accuracy it would sell like hotcakes. Not many would care about the recoil when you can take a moose at 700 yards.

      Adding a bit of velocity isn't going to help that much. There is a functional limitation of black powder substitutes.. as well as.. the more efficient and effective you make muzzleloaders.. the more legal restrictions will evolve.. just like with crossbows taking over archery. 👎 👎

    I don’t believe Knight made invented the inline muzzleloader. H&R made the “Huntsman” in the 70’s. I have an old .45cal that I’ve had since the mid 70’s. It wasn’t eru reliable with the percussion cap. A friend of my father’s that we hunted with gave me a clipping from a magazine for a nipple to shoot 209 shotgun primers. I bought it and have been using it 45+ years now. I never had a misfire with rifle after that. So give some love and credit to the old H&R.

    • @tnwildlife
      @tnwildlife  Рік тому +1

      Rick Taylor with CVA says that he does not recommend using a max load due to primer pressure. Matt shot with Rick yesterday and they put 90 grains of Blackhorn 209 in an Accura and experienced the primer getting stuck on several attempts. He recommends using around 80 grains of Blackhorn 209 by volume in your gun.

      Sorry Roy, but you are the ignorant party here. Hankins, Horak, and all the other custom builders don't offer this technology. They offer $5000 rifles that take months to build. CVA is offering an affordable rifle off the shelf with performance that comes close to a custom smokeless gun. There is apparently a market for that. If the other guys want to dive in to that market there's nothing stopping them.

      @@10-4CodyWade I said the Hankins rifle is more technologically advanced and they have been around for quite a while, so this using a breach plug with magnum primers, custom barrels, rifle stocks and collapsible ramrods that aren’t attached is not new and innovative as this video claims. I made no claims about price or availability. The word ignorant literally means, “Lacking knowledge, information or awareness about a particular thing.” I own a Hankins rifle and have for years so I would not be the one making an ignorant comment. I stated an obvious fact.

    the whole point of muzzleloader season was to use traditional flint or percussion side lock weapons like they used in the past! if you are going to allow modern inline weapons that are comparable to cartridge weapons using smokeless powder with optics that can shoot 500 to 600 yards+ the state of Tennessee and every other state needs to make a separate MODERN MUZZLELOADER SEASON! the way things are now is a complete violation of the spirit of the law and needs to be corrected !
