World War II and Korean War veterans knew firsthand about their potential, and there were plenty of cheap surplus sporter rifles on the market.Next came the magnum craze of the mid-20th century.

A limited-supply fuel may…

CVA’s muzzleloaders have come a long way from their blued-steel, brass and hardwood origins. The company has stayed at the forefront of the “modern muzzleloader” market, with designs like its Endura introduced last year. One of CVA’s longest-lasting muzzleloaders is the Optima, which the company has upgraded with “modern ergonomics and modularity” with the Optima XP and XP-SB.
