NEF Huntsman is a great mzloader, made in USA, reliable, accurate, with change barrel possibility, and great factory service.  I don't own a CVA.
best,           nrb

I hunted with my CVA today in the rain. I just wanted to get out with it, as I shot a nice 10 point with my Huntsman on 11/12. When I got home I found the pyrodex closest to the primer wet. 2 years ago in a downpour, I shot a nice buck with 90 gr 777 in the Huntsman... No Problem.
I achieve fine hunting accuracy in all my muzzleloaders, but from now on, in off weather it's the Huntsman!

I love my Sidekick a ton. If you are getting the Huntsman, you can get the combo packages with either the black powder barrel and rifle barrel or I beleive the muzzleloader barrel and a slug barrel or? Get the combo, that way you don`t have to send the gun back to NEF to have the 2nd barrel fitted. Jack.

Illhunter,

The model # your looking for is SB2-543. This is a .243 Handi Rifle and a .50 caliber Huntsman Combo. You can read up on it here, it's in the far right column. Last I checked, they were in stock at Sports South. So, any dealer that orders from SS should be able to get on for you. Also, don't forget the $20 rebate from NEF if you buy a center fire rifle before the end of November.

You should qualify for this.

Sports South has them in stock.
