Thanks for the info, looks like a good time to make contact with the warden. I think i will still show up a few days ahead and see what i can turn up. I believe you can still turn tag in if hunt hasn't started if i remember from a colorado deer hunt i had in the past. What would have happened...

Unit 9 is always a very dry unit in general and always produces some great bulls.As of last weekend any water that is on the flatline map has 5 to 9 cameras on it. the east and west side are both great. find an area that you prefer and start to learn what the elk do. it will be a great...

Hi there, I used my 14 points this year and drew a 81 antelope tag in colorado. I have been a monster mulies member since 2010 but my login and password wouldn't work anymore so i had to sign back up. I am heading to scout the area in September and was looking for starting access points to...

Im just getting into reloading for the 12 gauge and would like to know if anyone has the component list of the winchester AA trap loads. Im looking for a 1 and 1/8th oz shot with 3 dram powder load.and possibly a 1oz 2 and 3/4 dram load all 8 shot My reloading will be primarily for dove...

So anybody know what size flash hole the cva accuras come with,it looks like im looking for the 0.35. So if i drill to .35 what happens if i want to shoot say 777 pellets?

Ok i have been shooting the blackhorn 209 powder out of a cva accura and have seen some hang fires and 1 missfire. Im using the cci magnum 209 primers everyone recommends,so what am i not doing thats not right? i Have used powder charges from 90 to 110 grains. Do you guys drill out the breech...

yep went right through dropped him in his tracks.

The load i used for this hunt was BH 209 @ 95 grains with a 270 grn powerbelt platnium and cci 209m primer.175 yard shot.

Hi everyone. I just wanted to say thanks to all that helped me the newbie muzzleloader hunter get my cva accura set up with a good load in a short time. I Had a great hunt and really like this muzzleloader hunting.It wasnt easy stalking those antelope after the rifle hunters were there the week...

Wow I just got done with a weekend of shooting and I weighed all charges on a grain scale of my BH209 and settled on a load of 95 grains weighed with a powerbelt platnium 270 grain 1 and 1/2" groups at a 100 yards . Im a little afraid now that you guys set me straight on what im doing wrong...

Ok still a little new to the BH209 when you guys say 90 or 100 grains of 209 i take it that you use a regular grain scale like a rcbs or such. I tried the old blackpowder brass click out style measure and its not even close in equvilent grains. So I guess you have to measure each load and put it...

LAST EDITED ON Aug-13-10 AT 09:36AM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON Aug-13-10 AT 09:35?AM (MST) Thanks guys for all the load info, my thought was mabey a 250 grn powerbelt or barnes sabet 250,as for this first hunt it is just a thin skinned antelope.I would think a 250 should be fine what's your...

Ok I couldnt pass up the sale for the cva accura black and stainless at midway for 249.00. I would like to use this gun on my antelope hunt in wyoming this sept. Would anybody share there best load for the cva accura,as i wont have tons of time before sept is here and need to get sighted in...

Just wondering if my son who is 9 years old could legally hunt prairie dogs. We are going to be out hunting antelope late sept and I would like for him to get in some practice with the 17hmr.Wasnt sure on the age for kids to hunt in wyoming we are both nonresidents thanks.

I have had a t/c 50 cal hawken it is about 22 years old and still shoots great with pyrodex and hornady buffalo bullets.Just wondering if i can shoot all the new bullets out there or do i have to stick with the lead bullets in this older style of muzzleloader?
