CVA Optima XP SB Muzzleloader

Thick cover and tight blinds punish a long barrel. The hunter who plans for that gets the shot others never take.

A full-length rifle is fine in an open field, but the hunt rarely stays there.

Short Where It Counts: The 18 inch barrel moves through brush and swings inside a blind with less to catch. You turn toward the sound in the box blind and the muzzle clears the window frame.

Sized To The Shooter: The Mil-spec buffer tube stock adjusts length of pull from 11 to 14 inches. It fits a smaller shooter in a light shirt and a bigger one in a heavy coat.

Steady In The Hand: The vertical pistol grip and bolt-on cheek risers put your hand and eye where they belong. The rifle comes up the same way every time.

Made For Bad Weather: The stainless steel barrel wears a Nitride finish for corrosion resistance. Wet mornings do not send you home early.

Quick To Load, Quick To Clean: The bullet guiding muzzle and solid aluminum PalmSaver ramrod keep loading steady. The Quick Release Breech Plug keeps cleanup short.

Hunt the tight places, and bring the rifle that was built for them.
