CVA Wolf 209 Magnum

I would like to hear from owners about the quality, reliability, accuracy, etc of this rifle. I would be using it on deer in wooded & farmland. I am attracted by the price and would like to upgrade to inexpensive break action in-line. Thanks, Al

I don't have one but a buddy of mine bought one for his wife and they liked it so well that the next year he bought one for himself and retired his TC inline. I forget what model TC he had, Black Lightning or something like that I think.

As it turns out; I bought one and am looking forward to shooting & working up a short range deer hunting load (Under 100 yards). I never before used any sabots or powerbelts and never used 209 primers after trying them out and deciding against them on my bolt action M/L.. I plan on starting out with BH-209, Powerbelts, and the cleanest burning 209 primer I can get that will ignite the powder. I could use some guidance regarding powder, powerbelt selection, & primer so I don't have to break the bank with experimentation. Thanks
