the hunter's choice for affordable
falling block convenience

setting higher standards in muzzleloading

The Kodiak™ 209 Magnum, a revolutionary new series of Pivot Block Action design (patent pending) In-Lines, will fill the huge void in the
market for performance oriented falling block-type actions at an affordable price. Featuring a 209 ignition system that is completely protected from the elements, the Kodiak Magnum does not require the use of a tool to cap and is a snap to clean. The 28” magnum barrel
ensures a complete powder burn and provides for increased velocities over shorter barrel lengths. The new sleek looking, ergonomically
designed composite stock on the Kodiak Magnum features textured grip panels, integrated sling swivel studs, and has dual retention points
for maximum barrel stability. And most importantly, this gun is comfortable to shoulder and a pleasure for right or left-handed hunters to
shoot.

Optima™ 209 Break-Action
our 2003 best seller

Optima Pro 209 Break-Action
™

the shooter’s choice for optimal
long-range performance

breaking new ground in muzzleloading

The Optima Pro 209 Break-Action represents state-of-the-art gun building technology. Unlike conventional in-line muzzleloaders, there is no
receiver on the Optima Pro. The barrel is an impressive 29” in length, and fully fluted. This provides you with plenty of barrel to burn “magnum” charges. At the same time the overall rifle length and weight remain comfortable and easy to handle. The Optima Pro comes with DuraBright™ fiber optic sights that are all metal, with fully protected fibers, and guaranteed for life. The Optima family of rifles provides the hunter
or shooting enthusiast the option to switch barrels, allowing you to change calibers or length of barrel for the game and the shooting conditions.

The Optima 209 Magnum has many of the same features as the Optima Pro, but in a more compact design at an even more reasonable price. The
main features of this Break-Action design include a 209 ignition system that is completely protected from the elements, 26" magnum
barrel, Illuminator™ Fiber Optic Sights, Bullet Guiding Muzzle and built-in ramrod extension. All stocks in the Optima series come standard with
an ambidextrous cheek piece, deep pistol grip, and ventilated recoil pad, making it one of the most comfortable shooting guns on the
market. And because the Optima features an exposed hammer with transfer bar safety system, it is safe, reliable and extremely simple to operate.

a high performance and ultra
modern conventional in-line
The BuckHorn™ 209 Magnum is an ultra modern conventional in-line. The heart of this high-tech smokepole is the precision rifled 24” barrel with a 1:28 ” twist. It’s powered by an extremely hot 209 ignition system and will handle 150 grain magnum charges with ease. The
BuckHorn rifle also comes standard with a thumb actuated safety, Illuminator™ Fiber Optic Sights, dual barrel retention points and a Bullet
Guiding Muzzle. Another feature that really sets this gun apart from the competition is its radical new stock design. This unique stock
features Grip Dot panels to ensure a comfortable “non-slip” grip. Not bad for a rifle that retails for slightly more than a Ben Franklin!

mountain rifles
for the traditional hunter
The Mountain Rifle was the rifle of choice for the fearless men who first explored the American West.
Standing up to the rigorous demands of their lifestyles on the trail, this rifle was not only reliable but was
also extremely accurate. Today, CVA continues that tradition with the Mountain Hunter Rifle . Featuring a 32” blued barrel with a 1:48” twist,
this rifle is great for plinking with round balls or for hunting down big game with your favorite conical bullet. The stock is made with an
UltraGrain hardwood finish and is trimmed in blued hardware. 9 lbs. total weight. PR4210 • .50 Caliber Mountain Hunter Rifle Percussion $259.95

BEWARE OF LOADING GIMMICKS

VOLUNTARY RECALL REMINDER

Many new shooters are coming into muzzleloading and with the constant changes in
terminology, it is more important that ever for all muzzleloader users to understand
how to safely load and shoot their muzzleloader.

In August 1997 CVA implemented a Voluntary Recall of In-Line rifle models with serial numbers ending in -95 or -96. If you have a CVA In-Line model with such a serial number do not use or allow anyone else to use the gun. If you have one of these rifles, call
CVA immediately at 770.449.4687 for complete details and a free replacement barrel.
In May 1999 Blackpowder Products, Inc. purchased the assets of Connecticut Valley
Arms, Inc. and now operates under the trade name of Connecticut Valley Arms and/or
CVA. Any claims relating to the above described Voluntary Recall should be
addressed to Connecticut Valley Arms, Inc. not Blackpowder Products, Inc.
Blackpowder Products, Inc. assumes no liability for any products manufactured prior

Some manufacturers are now promoting guns which are designed to shoot heavier
than standard powder charges and/or projectiles. New shooters may become confused
by the advertising for these rifles and attempt to use heavier charges and/or projectiles in older guns, which were not designed to handle the resulting high pressures.
Even some experienced shooters have made this mistake. Some have also used what
is known as a “duplex load,” which is a mixture of blackpowder and smokeless powder. Any percentage of smokeless powder in a duplex load may create pressures
almost equal to pure smokeless charges and could cause a blackpowder gun to
explode. Make no mistake about it — THESE LOADING PRACTICES CAN BE
INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS!
All shooters need to fully understand the recommended loads for each blackpowder
gun they own. Call the CVA TECH-LINE at 770-449-4687 if you have any questions.
Be safe, not sorry.

POWERBELT® BULLETS

CVA is pleased to provide you with the most informative and user-friendly muzzleloading website available. Not only will you find pictures and technical data for our
extensive line of guns and accessories, but this site is also packed full of articles by the
CVA strongly recommends that you use PowerBelt bullets in your
muzzleloader. Why? Quite simply because they are the not only the
most advanced but also the best all-around performing projectile we
have ever shot in a muzzleloader. We believe that PowerBelt bullets
provide all the benefits of sabots but none of the problems. Like
sabots, PowerBelt bullets patented snap-on base provides a perfect gas
seal for consistent pressures and unsurpassed accuracy, but unlike
sabots, PowerBelt bullets don’t leave any plastic residue in the barrel.
This is because upon ignition the bullet expands to engage the rifling
and the PowerBelt’s plastic base follows behind and drops away after

the bullet leaves the muzzle, having done its job of providing a perfect
gas seal. With sabots you have to clean the barrel after every shot, but
with PowerBelt bullets you can shoot 6 to 8 shots before cleaning the
barrel to remove excess powder fouling and residue.Plus, PowerBelt
bullets hit harder because the plastic base eliminates gas blow-by providing higher velocities. Available in .45, .50 and .54 calibers, AeroTip
or Hollow Point and multiple grain weights.
