CVA Optima XP Features The CVA Optima XP is built on a single shot break action that opens wide for straightforward loading and cleaning after every outing a real advantage over traditional muzzleloader designs during a long hunting season. Its 18 steel barrel carries a 1:28 twist rate matched to modern saboted bullets delivering the stabilized accuracy hunters expect from a purpose built black powder rifle at practical hunting ranges. The Black Nitride finish applied to both the barrel and steel receiver resists corrosion from black powder fouling and the moisture that comes with late season hunts in rain or snow. A hammer block safety adds a genuine mechanical layer of protection so the rifle can be carried afield with confidence between shots. The pistol grip and buffer tube stock design is a significant departure from a traditional muzzleloader stock giving hunters an adjustable length of pull that can be tailored to heavy winter clothing or different body types. Bolt-on cheek risers let shooters raise their cheek weld to align properly with a mounted scope which means a faster more consistent sight picture shot after shot. Fiber optic sights with adjustable elements come standard for hunters who prefer open sights while the Picatinny rail on the receiver gives those who want a scope a ready-made mounting surface with no gunsmithing required. Backed by CVA s long standing reputation in the muzzleloader category the Optima XP delivers a modern adjustable single shot rifle for sale at GrabAGun.
