CVA Kodiak

[rooster52]

Anyone have any problem with the CVA Kodiak ? I just bought 2 of them from a man that said he was getting rid of them,just had to many misfires. I just shot both of them 30-35 times and no problems,very accurate. Just wanting to know if anyone has any probems with these rifles.

It is really the same gun as the Winchester Apex. I owned one of them and never had a misfire in over 100 shots. I think they are a very decent gun I just have got a thing about Knights so I sold mine and bought another Knight.

Is the misfires from a bad primer? Ask if they were dented. I have had a few bad primers.

What bullet /powder do you shoot in the 45 Kodiak / I just bought some 225 grain powerbelts and going to give them a try tommorrow along with some of the 285 Buffalo bullets that I have.

Rooster, Be careful with those 225's. 80g FFFg Triple7 is Maximum charge on those for deer. Anything over and they will come right apart.

Heres some pictures of the deer i shot with the 225 powerbelt and 80g fffg triple7.

With a lung shot i think you could go up to 90g t7 but i just don't know if it would be safe or not. Hopefully i'll have an answer by next month.
