  • Does that have the Bergera barrel?

  • No it does not. I bought in Miami to hunt hogs because I couldn't buy an actual firearm as a non-resident and it was actually cheaper than returning to Louisiana and getting one of my guns/bows. In hindsight, I would have gotten the Optima Elite and also bought a .45-70 Bergera barrel because of new Louisiana primitive weapon laws.

  • what kind of groups do you get with that..im lookin at the wolf model with the camo stock

  • Unfortunately I don't know yet. When I was sighting it in, it began to rain and I ended up heading home. I haven't shot it since because of a new job. I think groupings are going to be good, except when the barrel starts to get somewhat dirty. The first three shots should make for a fair group before cleaning is needed for accuracy. Recoil is almost nil because of the slow burn of real gunpowder and not synthetic fast burning cartridges.

  • You need to get you some Blackhorn209. Stuff is simply amazing.

  • yea it keeps it cleaner and it more safe if there any burning powder it will put it out for reloading

  • do you have to swab the barrel after each shot with sabots?

  • i dont like cvas i had 2 of em and they both would miss fire. so i just bought a t/c omega much better i think haha. u shooting 100 grain or 150 grain?

  • Mine shoots great with 2 50gr pellts of 777 and the new Hornady FPB bullet.Awsome combo! I have a Leupold 2-7x33 on mine.

  • I shoot 150 grains of pyrodex, with 348 gr hp powerflex bullets. It doesn't recoil bad at all, from what guns ive shot not many do give a big kick at all. The biggest recoil i have gotten is probabaly the 45-70 marlin w/ the new hornady rounds, and even those weren't bad at all.
