Well bought a CVA Buckhorn Magnum .50 Cal Black powder rifle at Bass Pro Shops in Ontario Ca. The rifle was on sale very low price, just asked for one took it to the cashier and took it home. Also bought cleaning kit and some lead ball. The rifle is pretty light in weight, comes with no straps. Has a nice ram rod. The sights are very easy to find the near ones are green the far one is red. I've shot the rifle about 50 times and have been able to find that the accuracy is not that well at distances over 100 yards. The bullets are about 12" too high from the target. I am using sabots with .429 bullets. I need to adjust the sights more. I am happy with the performance for a beginner gun. I am just starting out on this gun so there is a learning curve. The power of the rifle is amazing, I have shot some cans with holes bigger that I have seen even from my favorites rifles. Loading and cleaning is fairly simple. I am measuring my own powder using pyrodex brand with fast loaders. The primers used are the remington sts 209 premier sts. I have had no misfires they all have fired just as expected. I recommend buying the 209 Shooter's Kit comes with all you need. I like the 2069 capper/extractor makes the operation very fast and easy. In conclusion I am happy with my $140 gun, cheap to shoot, easy to clean, great buy, and smells great.
