CVA making center fire rifles ??!!
« on: October 22, 2009, 06:57:16 AM »
Was in one of my local pawn haunts yesterday and saw a CVA optima rifle ( same stock as their muzzleloaders ,synthetic spiderwebbed) and it didnt have a loading rod under the barrel .. Which i thought was odd , under closer inspection it wasnt the muzzle loader but a 243 win chambered rifle that bares a close resemblence to the T/C line of rifles ...

 Anyone else ran into this curious little rifle , Or better yet own one ?  I know this isnt our normal Handi question .... But I'm always interested in new rifles and figured other single shot guys might know about this new animal.

The CVA Optima Elite is centerfire capable, the Optima is a muzzleloader only. I have an Optima Elite with 7mm-08 and 6mm Ackley right now, also had a 300 Win Mag barrel, but sold it to Digger. They shoot good, he's got others also, do some reading in the CVA forum here for more info on them
