My new hog thumper. Started life as a 25" CVA HUNTER chambered in 450Bushmaster.
Bbl chopped and conical brake added. Now bbl is 17.75" OAL.
Trigger was set by me at. 3lbs 10ozs with NO creep.Will be reloading the Hornady 200gr FTX at moderate vels. Will also try just above sub using Trail Boss.
These guns have a super heavy contour bbl. And even looseing that much bbl,still weighs 7lbs 10ozs. --- pruhdlr 20210710_111840.jpg 20210710_111850.jpg

That is quite the unique setup. I thought CVA just made muzzleloaders.

Got some 250 gr SST M/L bullets coming from a friend that has gotten away from M/L's. He has the bullets and sabots. He said the bullets measure .451-.452". He will send me 85 bullets only.
Wondering what difference there would be in these bullets and the 250gr FTX. ---- pruhdlr

Couple days ago the above gun shot these groups.
The TB and the 5744 shot to the same POI using the same POA.
The TB load is a "cat fart" load. Minimal recoil and minimal blast/concussion.
The 5744 - -> plenty of blast/overpressure,substantial recoil,no muzzle rise. Love the obnoxious brake. - pruhdlr 20210810_090607.jpg 20210810_082218.jpg 20210810_090607.jpg 20210810_082218.jpg
