Ok for each his own as powerful as this cartilage is I see no reason for second shot. I have never had to fire a second shot with the 450 boom down . Now if you’re talking varmints then I can see a second follow up shot yes shooting say at a running coyote or something.my nephew got a Mossberg. not my first choice but it knocks em floppin.
i like the cartridge but no bolts out there really pop my cork.
Ok good informationI had a chance to shoot a ruger American ranch rifle in .450 Bushmaster a while ago.
For the money, a very slick running action, and easy to shoot fast without getting beat up. Loved it!
Ok thanks guysi helped him sight it in and his mossy shot fine. i just like singles and levers.
the magazine would bother me if it stuck down.
I have 4 friend's from hunting lease all with Ruger Ranch 450's they got them on sale for ~ $400 several years ago. They all shoot Hornady factory loads and they shoot amazingly well out to 200....everything they have shot from hogs to yotes to deer has been DRTI have a Ruger American, not the 450, but it is very impressive for the money.
Whatever you buy make sure it has a good brake on it. The CVA is a nice rifle. Also make a real nice single shot. Never been an American fan but they do shoot good.Ok thanks guys
Ok thanks will check CVAWhatever you buy make sure it has a good brake on it. The CVA is a nice rifle. Also make a real nice single shot. Never been an American fan but they do shoot good.
It is a very good choice in states where shotguns or muzzle loaders have been required--I have an ar-15 in this cal--got the upper from Bear Creek--it functions fine with no issues --get 2400 fps with 240/250 gr bullets and lil' gun powder--accuracy ~1" at 100 yds--Roger
CVA has always made a good barrel, their in-line muzzleloaders typically outshot ones several times more expense. the Cascade is a really nice budget oriented rifle.CVA Cascade XT Hillside camo in 450bm using Bearcreekballistics.com 240HV ammo. 0.5-.75" 3 shot group @100yds. 1.25"@ 200yds. 1.75"@300yds. 240HV @2550fps.
