    Vista selling all its Ammo companies to foreign entities

    I wasn’t aware of that. It seemed like a done deal based upon what I had read here. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Vista selling all its Ammo companies to foreign entities

    The FTC approves things like this. It’s not like a sporting goods store being sold to someone else. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Vista selling all its Ammo companies to foreign entities

    It sure doesn't look like this was thought through by our government and these people seem shady as shit! https://www.forbes.com/sites/daviddawkins/2019/10/18/meet-27-year-old-arms-dealer-michal-strnad-the-czech-industrialist-with-more-tanks-than-the-army/?sh=2832bfb868f2

    What else do I need?

    Are these the XTP's that people are talking about and then buy the Harvester black sabot's separately? I can see this being much less expensive overall if so. https://www.natchezss.com/ho-45-cal-452-240-gr-xtpmaghp-ho45220

    What else do I need?

    I was told by the guy helping me at the store he would have suggested 209 but they didn't have any in stock and didn't know when they would be getting it again. He suggested the pellets since I was new and it would both be more convenient as well as reduce my upfront cost.

    What else do I need?

    So I am confused. After looking at the website you linked to I see the 240 grain Hornady that I bought based upon what most said to try first it shows green and not black. Are you saying buy the black plastic sabot and put the Hornady bullet in it? This is getting very complicated for someone...

    What else do I need?

    I knew the bore butter wasn’t needed for my gun but was part of the kit. As far as the XTP bullets probably 80% of the suggested bullets were the 240 grain XTP on my previous threads asking what to start with and most said the black sabot but never gave an explanation what the difference was...

    What else do I need?

    I bought a longer range rod but forgot to put it in my picture. It's interesting about how people get different results. In my earlier posts about what to get the majority said get Hornady XTP's, probably 80% and most said avoid powerbelts. I went with pellets to get a feel for it but like most...

    What else do I need?

    I have been exclusively a Bowhunter since 1992. So I know nothing about muzzleloaders and what is needed. It was what was handed to me. I kind of knew from my research that I didn’t need the bore butter but it was part of the only kit they had. I have rem oil on my work bench so that isn’t an...

    What else do I need?

    I picked up the CVA Optima I won at a dinner today and below is what I was able to get at the store. When I got home I mounted the Burris Scope using the levels I tune a bow with and a small household level. I know I need a case but they didn’t have the CVA one I wanted. I forgot to look for a...

    MTN OPS lead concerns

    I get my stimulant from my coffee. I don’t need extra caffeine and some of these have unhealthy levels of caffeine. Then citrulline and Arginine dilates the arteries to allow more blood flow which gives more blood flow which allows more oxygen to the muscles so we can do more work. I have no...

    MTN OPS lead concerns

    I replied to this thread in 2020 and said I have taken the Enduro which is the NOS supplement without caffeine. I also stated that my working and peak HR was much lower on the days that I took the Enduro based upon both a Fitbit and a Garmin Fenix 5X fitness watch. So I ask yet again what is a...

    Need to accessorize a CVA Optima 2

    Since I posted this list I have read similar info as you and most have said the Hornady XTP’s. So I will start with them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need to accessorize a CVA Optima 2

    This is what I was thinking about getting after reading here, seeing some video's on Youtube and the owners manual. I would start with two of the white hot pellets and the 348gr. PowerBelt's based upon what the owners manual said. Curious what people think? I will likely only use it for hunting...

    Need to accessorize a CVA Optima 2

    I was at an NWTF dinner last night and won the Optima V2. It is the one with the stainless barrel, Realtree camo and comes with scope mounts. I know absolutely nothing about muzzleloaders. I have hunted with a bow exclusively since the mid 90’s. What do I need? I saw there is a starter kit that...

    TRT Anyone?

    Bc/BS didn’t cover mine. I am off of it now from the super high RBC, Hematocrit levels and BP. Took me from 168 to 400. Urologist wanted about 700-750. When my BP went from normal 110/70 to 210/154 I was told to stop immediately. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
