Gun Descriptions

CVA Optima

Modeled after CVA’s top-of-the-line ACCURA® V2, OPTIMA rifles feature the same trigger-guard actuated breeching lever, internal parts, and trigger. All Optima V2 rifle models featured in the CVA catalog and on the CVA website feature stainless steel or Nitride-treated stainless steel barrels. Add in CVA’s Quick-Release Breech Plug (which is finger removable), 100% ambidextrous stock, and a CrushZone® recoil pad, and you’ve got a gun with more quality features than any other muzzleloading rifle in its price range. Equipped with a 28” barrel, the OPTIMA V2 is easy to maneuver in the treestand and comfortable to carry in the mountains. And it comes standard with a DuraSight® DEAD-ON™ one-piece scope mount, and CVA’s solid aluminum PalmSaver ramrod.

Traditions Vortek

Speed Load System provides fast and easy loading for follow-up shots. Hogue® Comfort-Grip overmolding ensures a firm grip regardless of the weather conditions. Quick-relief recoil pad. 209 primer ignition. Solid-aluminum ramrod with Quick-T ramrod handle functions as a palm saver and T-handle bullet starter. Soft-touch camouflage stock. Factory-installed and boresighted scope features range finding reticle, multicoated lenses, 3” eye relief and 1/4-MOA windage and elevation adjustments. Dual safety system.
