An online buddy of mine wanted a new Hawken and so I put one together for him, almost a clone of mine except he wanted a real dark stain and so we figured everything out and I went to work.
Rifle is built on a CVA Hawken stock, Deer Creek 32" 1:66 twist .58cal barrel, relocated barrel tenon so...
"Guys, I just got my order of Thors in today and they are to small! My season starts next week and there's no way I will have time to send them back and get the right size. Any ideas?! "
Seems we run into this issue from time to time and so I took some pictures and will show you how to re-size...
i know it but they go to the extreme and put a huge 3/4" long qla at the end. Ive been told by a few thats its actually the BORE thats off center. Others that have cut them off, found the QLA was the problem. Kind of a hit and run when it comes to shooting conicals out of their guns.
The...
with it being a tc " Not the best choice for conicals" your best bet is to stick with conicals like the Thor, Hornady FPB or the heavier powerbelts.
TC's can just be horrible with conicals due to the often misaligned QLA at the end of the barrel. TC even will tell their shooters that their guns...

Im going to have to email and get some more info on whats going on with all these guns that are popping up.
Also the...
A couple days ago I was looking on the cva site for some stuff to order and came across the new guns for 2013 and this one really caught my eye! I love the Wolf, inexpensive, accurate and light weight. Even better now with the SS barrel.
Now The hard part.... Black or camo? :thrwrck:

I used a different video on reloading the gun, some shots had the sun in the lens, just trying to get the best angle available. only 3 shots were taken.
Took 5 hours to upload but I got the shooting video up LOL. No trouble with it yesterday, but come hunting season, it always finds a way to go POP rather than Bang.

with the TC Omega, the best primer to use in that set up will be the Winchester W209, they seem to shoot cleaner with these primers. No head space adjustment for the omega is needed. The cva/traditions were made to have loose head space so you could shoot basically almost any 209 primer, we're...
far from a random guy, i live for this kind of stuff! Taking something, working on it, seeing how it turns out... Nothing better than that! Then again, Getting the owner to thank you and let you know you did a job well done, thats what its all about.
