Definition for Accura is Accuracy

Well I went to the range this morning like I planned and shot what I planned to shoot but, I have to say I was surprised and very very impressed with the way the CVA Accura V2 had performed. First things first I topped it with  a brand new Bushnell DOA 250 3-9x40 scope which I absolutely love (thank you Carlos) and plan to experiment more with.

The Accura is one of those muzzleloaders that for some reason just slides right into that nook when you shoulder it and has that feel of dependability to it. The way it feels with the non-slip grip and forearm gives you that added confidence I think.

The hardest thing I actually had to deal with was getting it on paper with the new scope but, once I did it dialed in with all the ease of a seasoned muzzleloader.

First up was the Barnes T-EZ 250 grain Aerotips, BH209 loose powder, Fiocchi 616 primers, 50 yards

Next up was Powerbelt 245 grain Aerotips, IMR White Hots 100 grains, Triple Seven primers, 50 yards

First impressions mean a lot with me and I will already say without any more testing (I'm only kidding) that this is the muzzleloader that I will be hunting with this coming deer season here in Connecticut and Vermont. With the QRBP system and the Bergara Barrel you just can not go wrong. You top that with a good powder and bullet combination and you'll be making bullseye's and/or filling the freezer.

Now to touch base on the bullets and powder first is the Barnes T-EZ 250 grain Aerotip. That particular bullet hold up to it's name EZ meaning it was one of the easiest bullets I have ever loaded without cleaning between shots. I can not wait to shoot more. The BH209 powder in my opinion thus far is I have to get more, bottom line. It is clean burning and works well with the Barnes bullets and Fiocchi primers. Thanks again for your suggestions Carlos.

Next is the Powerbelt 245 grain Aerotips. This particular bullets is a full bore type and the new type of base I like and the have found that I prefer the lower grain such as the 245 works better with my setups than the 295 Aerotips so I will be doing more shooting with those. I do think the IMR White Hots are a very good powder and do burn cleaner than most. I will be using that brand more, I only wish it came in loose powder and not just pellet form.

Next trip to the range is the same setups but at a distance of  100 yards.
