horst Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 I was looking through my fall Cabelas catalog last night.Looks like everyone making a muzzleloader similiar to the Apex now and you can find em in any price range from a little over 200$ to closer to 700$ from most of the better known companies in muzzleloading. How did everyone start making hese so fast, isnt there patents or anything involved in that industry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slugshooter Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 Re: A few CVA Questions I think patents make it easier for a company to copy your design, as long as they pay you for using your design, Coca-Cola has never been patented because they don't want other companies making the same formula, they have to put the ingredients, therefore you got all those knockoff soda's, but none of them taste exactly like Coke.

David_218 Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 Re: A few CVA Questions ".....I thought hard on the Savage but they have already talked of making them illegal in Indiana due to the smokeless powder, so I will pass....." Switzerland Co. There was some talk about banning the Savage smokeless M/L, here in Indiana but that was dropped, and they are legal. However I have been on another forum and it seems that some of these Savage M/L 10-II have blown up on some including an expert during testing. So If you should purchase one I'd strongly suggest using Triple "777" or Pyrodex RS and NOT any type Modern Smokeless powder. I am certain (without owning one) they are fine M/L's otherwise just use the B.P. Subsitutes though to be safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not that I am touchy about certain subjects, I am touchy about BS and misinformation. Thats all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest RandyWakeman Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Re: A few CVA Questions [ QUOTE ] I I have been told that the 45 cal holds better accuracy and a flatter trajectory. Is this true? Thanks, Rod [/ QUOTE ] No. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
too_pointer Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 Re: A few CVA Questions I see this post was started 9-03-04, so it has been around awhile. CVA claims to sell more muzzleloaders than anyone else, and maybe they do. If it fits you and shoots fine, then why nock it LOL. There are alot of people who shoot the .45 now. I agree with some of the others though. If I only owned one it would be the .50, simply because of it's versatility ! too_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
