While the OPTIMA V2 shares the name of its popular predecessor, the Version 2 gun has a completely differentdesign in many ways. Modeled after CVAs top-of-the-line ACCURA V2, the OPTIMA V2 features the same triggerguardactuated breeching lever, internal parts, and neutral center-of-gravity trigger. Add in CVAs Quick ReleaseBreech Plug (which is finger removable without any tool what-so-ever), 100% ambidextrous stock, and a CrushZonerecoil pad, and youve got a gun with more quality features than any other muzzleloading rifle in its price range.Equipped with a 26 416 grade stainless steel barrel, the OPTIMA V2 is easy to maneuver in the tree stand and comfortableto carry in the mountains. And it comes standard with a DuraSight Dead-On one-piece scope mount orDuraSight fiber optic sights and CVAs solid aluminum PalmSaver ramrod.
