Folks:
Just got back from Dick's, and they have a firearms sale going on till pretty much end of month.
Camo, heavy barrel H&R 223, 22-250 and 308 with scopes are $249.
At the risk of heresy here, they have Made in Spain CVA Optima Elite heavy barrel 223, 7mm-08, 270 and 30-06 for $220. The cheapest add-on barrel is $199, they ask as much as $249 for additional barrels. They want $199 for blued barrels, and $235 for stainless. May as well buy complete rifles for $220 if you want the extra calibers. I handled the 270...really well balanced and points well too. It is drilled and tapped for a scope AND open sights, the barrel is drilled and tapped at the muzzle for a front sight!
To tell the truth, I had more or less forgotten about CVA being a break-open player. I know a friend who bought a muzzle loader then got a 223 barrel for it...very happy about that. With additional barrels up to $235 I know why I put it out of my mind.
If any sale ticket ends in "5", like "219.95" they give you another 10% off.
Maybe I can play at the end of the month.
Have fun you all.
