Today, we are going to discuss which muzzleloader caliber is truly the best!
With the recent rise in popularity of .40 and .45 caliber muzzleloader bullets, we figured that it's time to give you our thoughts how these calibers stack up against the already established .50 caliber. There are many factors to consider and joining me in this discussion is Chad Schearer of Shoot Straight TV. Chad has decades of experience in muzzleloading and we are excited to share his thoughts on the matter!

I would like to see the basic CVA Wolf, Traditions Buckstalker and Tracker in 40,45,50,54,and 58 calibers.I Would like to see those same platforms in 8,10,12,16 and 20 gauge single barrel shotguns. Wouldn't that be fun and wouldn't break the 🏦 bank

@austinlewis3273 Год назад

I own a traditions muzzleloader shotgun. 12 gauge

@markhall1169 Год назад

I love new guns boy they'd look sweet 😆 Great idea

@bobbystevens4087 Год назад

I would love to see a 40 caliber in the Acura

@joshmatty1077 11 месяцев назад

I'm from New Mexico, and have hammered big bulls with my TC 50 cal. @ 300 yards with pass through.

@johnnewcomb5162 11 месяцев назад

What are you using for powder and what round?

@joshmatty1077 11 месяцев назад

@johnnewcomb5162 my set is TC encore pro hunting 209x50 120 gr. With a 300 thor bullet I have used a Parker productions as well, did the job but that thor puts a hole in them

@GoldenClays1 6 месяцев назад

I have an older model CVA Hunter-Bolt .45 Cal Magnum which I absolutely love. It feels like a regular rifle to me. Recommended Load is 295gr Powerbelt Bullet and 100 Gr of Powder. Good Stuff!

@sirjhonson8218 Год назад

I have a CVA .45 cal. and a .54 cal. Hawken. I have trouble finding ammo for both. I have to cast and size my own Minnie Ball bullet. They work well. Been working well for me.

@barrykrohn2229 Год назад

Your videos are great very informative but would like to see you guys put together a video of what muzzleloader hunters have to use here in the northwest Oregon, and Idaho as far as your Recommendations on bullets, powder and caps hope you can put together best recommendations even rifle

@atubeviewer4942 Год назад

I dont see a CVA link where I can see the ballistics he was referring to. Do you have it?

@nmhvactech5474 Год назад

Any plans for CVA to increase the barrel twist speed in the 50 cal Accura’s from 1:28 to something like 1:24 or 1:22 to stabilize the longer ELR type Bullets on the market. I think this would help the 50 cal. What’s the max charge for the new Accura LR-x and MR-x rifles using in White Hots or Firestar pellets, Blackhorn 209 powder ( by weight ) ? Does CVA and PowerBelt recommend the 50 cal ELR ( 270 gr or 330 gr ) bullets in the Accura rifles? FYI I’ll be testing both out of my rifle, but I haven’t seen much info / data on the newer 270 gr bullets.

@MuzzleLoaderscom Год назад

As far as I am aware, CVA does not plan to change the twist rate in the .50 caliber Accuras any time soon. CVA Accura Magnum Charges: IMR White Hots Pellets: 3 50-grain pellets FireStars Pellets: 5 33-grain Pellets Blackhorn 209: 84-grains (measured by weight) CVA does recommend using the ELR bullet in the .50 caliber Accura models. We have found that you will have better results using a magnum charge with that bullet.

@markhall1169 Год назад

If u had to choose between the Traditions strikerfire vapr or the cva accura mr-x 45 cal. Which 1?

@Bowdock 7 месяцев назад

In my opinion there is a great need to make breakopen guns look and have the feel of Real guns that they really don’t have now. Classic feel with Classic looks!

@bobboyer9440 Год назад

I haven't seen this kind of reporting on round ball. Is there a video available?

@jeffhays1968 Год назад

was going to get a Woodman Arms in .40 but just looked up Mass rules. No go ! gotta be a .45 or bigger

@cjr4497 7 месяцев назад

In my state a 35 Whelen is a muzzleloader, LOL. I wish we would go back to only actual muzzleloading rifles for the primitive firearms season. The added pressure really took a toll on our public land deer numbers.

@rooster72886 9 месяцев назад

I bought a cva 40 cal inline last year got for 150 bucks but my question is do you just put your charge blocks in and then a sabot bullet or do they need that I call em wad that the bullet goes on a 50 cal this is my 1st muzzleloader that isn't a 50 cal so curious so I don't damage anything

@larrycouch560 Год назад

At 10.08 in this video, what brand/style 209 capper is used?

@MuzzleLoaderscom Год назад

That is the CVA Magnetic Capper. I will include a link to it below. muzzle-loaders.com/products/cvar-variflametm-magnetic-capper-tool-ac1723

Inline small caliber for squirrel! Pic rail for scope or red dot.

@brucelewis1017 Год назад

Since cva is coming out with 40 and 45 cal they should bring the 54 cal back in the inline

@metroplexchl Год назад

Would you use .40 for black bear?

@nathansmith8969 10 месяцев назад

40 cals are now legal to hunt with in Virginia and looking to drop down from 50 to 45 or 40 as I get older.

@dbzryder Год назад

Any thoughts on an in-line shotgun? Maybe a double barrel in-line shotgun? In some states you are allowed to take dear with a shotgun. I have a double barrel shotgun made by Pedersoli that I take bird hunting and would like to see something offered in an in-line...

@MuzzleLoaderscom Год назад

There are a few inline shotguns out there currently. Unfortunately, we do not have any on our website but I would recommend checking out the Knight TK2000.

@jowhi9296 Год назад

Can these be used in other muzzleloaders like TC encore

@MuzzleLoaderscom Год назад

Definitely!

Anybody notice the hang fire at 9:12, also at 10:19

@yeetarmyitstimeforgoodtime8958 Год назад

I can understand using a .40 or a .50 caliber with bullets but with a round ball and traditional muzzleloader I would use at least a .50

@taurushipointenthusiast1306 Год назад

Plain lead such as Thompson Centers Cheap Shots out perform all the copper and copper jackets, ME CALIBER NOT SO MUCH, States have their own guidelines, But the bullet choice out of a muzzle loader, In many instances I find plain ol round ball out performing Shock Wave, Power Belts and the like.yeah sure scientifically they out perform round ball, but practically in real world that round ball at 100 yards or less is so much better and more devastating. Now out of a smokeless muzzle loader odds will favor the belted power ball, shock wave and the likes there of, They tend to get the speed and power needed. But hey I mean there is tons of evidence supporting but it aint none of my business

@Phah-Queue Год назад

No .44?🤷‍♂️

@emilymiller1853 4 месяца назад

Why would they waste their time? No need for a .44 when you have .45 shooting .357 and 40 Cal projectiles

@TheBowdoc1 Год назад

Looks like the 40 is dead before it even got out of the gate. I didn’t see a single listing in the 2023 CVA catalog.😕 Can’t wait to see some videos on the new Paramount V2! I like the stock change. Looks like a different sight on the Colorado edition too.

@TOPGUNMPD08 5 месяцев назад

The new technology seems great. These new muzzleloaders lòok suspiciously like bolt action center fire rifles. I think im going to pass. My 50 cal shooting 45 cal sabot ftx bullets does everything I need it to do. Im not the guy who needs to extend my effective range past 300yds. The majority of all hunters have no business shooting further anyways.

@haoshito5754 Год назад

So if .40 can go with speed of 2700 ft/s , and it weighs about 190 grain, it potentially could kill a bear and something more??? Noice

@jonathonlang1844 5 месяцев назад

No potentially, it would do well on most all north american game.

@luckyjim51 Год назад

There is only 50 cal in the stores... to much recoil..!! Dumb....!!

@mikel.4885 Год назад

Stay away from power belts...

@bobjoatmon1993 Год назад

Why? I simply don't understand people who make an accusation but don't explain why. Do you think everyone else is a mind reader and just knows what you think. Here's the straight skinny on your type of comment... It impresses nobody and is ignored by everyone because it doesn't help them evaluate anything.

@mikel.4885 Год назад

@BOB Joatmon power belts are trash they dont group well and if you manage to hit a deer with one they dont leave good blood trails

@Archiballd123 8 месяцев назад

I dont get you Americans...Why you use 100grn BP to shot on fire range on 50 m??? I use 50 kal "Hawken" Hunter Pedersoli and i use 48-72 depens of round ball or real or 480grn conical like..( accuracy with biger bp loads it worst) I dont need more ,but you use 100 or 120 bp ( i see even 3x50 pellets of 777) why? I always want to question this... ( sorry for my eng)

@emilymiller1853 4 месяца назад

😂😂😂 because you don't know what your shot distance when you see listing your rifle bubba. Keep shooting paper and private game. Real hunting is variable
