Great Muzzleloader for beginners: CVA Optima V2

Become a Channel Member! / @masonoutdoors_masonle... The CVA Optima V2 Muzzleloader seems to be a great muzzleloader for beginners despite some minor issues.
It has great ergonomics, it is very easy and intuitive to use and should be very durable.

Honestly cva for a budget rifle you cant go wrong I had one of the rifles from the hunter section but I like how the muzzle loader has same trigger nice hammer cocker for help fluted barrel shows they care beautiful rifle

I did a lot of research before I bought mine. I knew about the screws . I bought mine about 4 years ago from Dunham's for $279 with scope included (konus). This thing just shoots. I've killed a pile of deer with it.

Nothing wrong with these new muzzleloaders. Always will prefer an old Hawkins though.

[@Ma_Deuce]

You and me both. Everyone looks at me like I have a unicorn horn when I say how much I love that old thing. Sometimes it goes bang, sometimes it doesn't. That's just part of the fun

This some good old 1700s nostalgia

I have a cva wolf v2 only thing i recommend is do not shoulder it regular lol lift shoulder up and elbow up high you will fugg your shoulder up cuz of the metal piece along the butt of the rifle

I got smack for it, bought mine it was missing 3 of the 4 scope mount screws right out of the box.

[@robertschweppenhauser9891]

I love it .

❤❤❤

I'm tall and lanky as an orangutan. My length of pull is unreasonable.

[@bricehale6593]

I have the wolf it looks just like this one have had it for 3 or 4 years never shot it 😅 but im about to for muzzloader season since i haven't got a deer yet

[@danthiesen4778]

I don't care how nice a gun looks, all what matters to me is can it shoot a 1-1 1/2" circle at 100 yards with open sites. I have been struggling on if I should buy a cva because I have been a TC and Knight fan. I would never buy a stainless steal barrel rifle because stainless sucks

[@yoeyyoey8937]

What’s wrong with stainless?

[@danthiesen4778]

@@yoeyyoey8937 it heats up faster and it holds the heat longer then blued. I don't know why stainless does but from my experience it does and besides I don't like the thought of sun reflecting off of it

[@yoeyyoey8937]

@@danthiesen4778 that’s interesting I didn’t think about that thanks for your take!

[@BaldKiwi117]

Yeah unless you're in a marine environment, I don't see the need for going stainless

[@Eyeinthesoul]

Your right bro. Going with the stained steel is a must !😂

Shit I started with p58 enfield

Those abominations shouldn't be called muzzle loaders.

[@CK-dt6nx]

Agree...if it can use pelletized powder, it ain't a muzzleloader.
