Today, CVA dropped not one, but two additions to their Accura series of muzzleloaders, giving muzzleloaders out there two more muzzleloaders to ponder before next season.

The ACCURAX-Treme Series is all-new for 2021 with two configurations that provide a level of overall performance and ease-of-use that is unequaled by any other break-action muzzleloaders on the market today. Accuracy has always been a given in CVA’s ACCURA series rifles because all are equipped with premium, custom quality Bergara barrels, which are widely recognized as the most accurate production muzzleloader barrels in the world. The new ACCURA LR-X and MR-X offer features never before seen in production muzzleloaders – like quick-take down design for easy cleaning and compact transport, a carbon-fiber collapsible loading rod that eliminates the accuracy robbing necessity of hanging a ramrod under the barrel, an adjustable comb for perfect eye-to-sight alignment with open sights or optics, fast rifling twists for optimal performance with modern projectiles and propellants, and a threaded muzzle which allows the use of CVA’s Paramount Muzzle Brake for magnum charge shooting with minimal recoil. And, most importantly, the new ACCURA LR-X and MR-X are both available in the super-fast and flat shooting .45 caliber, as well as the .50 caliber for states or seasons that require it

The ACCURA LR-X is our longer barreled ACCURA muzzleloader (the LR stands for “Long Range”), featuring a 30” Nitride treated stainless steel Bergara Barrel. The LR-X is designed for the hunter that wants the extra velocity that longer barrels provide, making longer range shots a bit less difficult due to decreased drops. Perfect for the western plains or eastern bean fields, the ACCURA LR-X is available in Veil™ Wideland camo or RealtreeHillside camo, both with matching Cerakote barrel finishes

The ACCURA® MR-X is our shorter-barreled ACCURA® muzzleloader (the MR stands for “Mountain Rifle”) and features a 26” Bergara Barrel in either bare stainless steel or Nitride® treated stainless steel. The MR-X is designed for hunters seeking a rifle that is both light to carry in the mountains and easy to maneuver in tight situations – like thickets or tree stands – yet still capable of reaching on out there when necessary. The ACCURA® MR-X is available in Veil® Alpine™ or Realtree® Rockslide™ camos with matching Cerekote® barrel finishes, or a basic black stock with stainless steel.

So far, CVA has been the only muzzleloading manufacturer to announce any major lineup changes, and they've done it twice. With interest in precision shooting sports growing, it's nice to see CVA including muzzleloading enthusiasts in the craze by introducing these new Accura muzzleloaders.

I hope to see the new Accura muzzleloaders in retail around the same time as the new Paramount HTR, by late spring or early summer. We will be doing our best to get a hold of these new muzzleloaders and testing them at the Walter Cline Range.
