my new CVA

[Str8shooter]

Hi folks -

I'm here to tell you I have joined the Muzzleloaders' community. Last night I went into our local Gander Mountain store and purchased a .50 caliber, pivot break, CVA Kodiak Magnum. The gun and accessories came in a package deal for less than $230.00 and the salesman threw in a box of 209 primers free. Today I picked up 2 boxes (one each in 30 and 50 grain) of Pyrodex pellets, a range rod, and some cleaning supplies. This weekend is tied up so next week I am hitting the range to see how this baby shoots. I am hoping to replace the use of my slug gun during shotgun deer season here in the NY Southern Zone where regular rifles aren't allowed. I would be interested in hearing from you folks who shoot black powder already for some tips, please.

Thank you.
Rob
