cva accura

[country102102]

Although I have had my cva hawken sideline for 25 yrs I have recently bought a CVA Accura. I put a Nikon Buckmaster scope on and started sighting it in last weekend. I am not all that familiar with the new guns so asking for a little help. I am currently shooting 100grains of white hot pellets with a 245 gr CVA power belt copper bullet and remington 209 primers. 3rd shot at 50yards was 12:00 3 inches high so I thought 100 yds should be really close. Moved out to 100 yards and shot 2 at 7:00 3-4 inches low and 1 at 5:00 3-3 inches low. Thought maybe the barrel was too hot so I did not shoot it anymore. Was wondering after 6 shots with cleaning it after 3 could that affect the accuracy that much.

I has good luck with two Whit Hot pellets and the Barnes TEZ 250gr flat base but I was swabing between each shot, try that.

yeah you'll want to swab after each shot. I just shot some today out of the new wolf and first 2 touching, next one was 3" to the left. On shots 2 and 3 i had to push through crud rings

Get ya some Buckhorn 209 and forget about the swabbing and the crud ring. You wont go back to pellets.

Exactly what Fire said! I cleaned the Accura Spotless and went back to BH209 LOL. I dont know why i even bother with the other powders.

Guy's, I recently picked up a bottle of BH-209, what would be the equivalent power wise of two white hot's, 85-90 grns?

Thats a good question. I may have to pull the chrono out and see what will = what

Yeah 85-90 should be ball park.
