Hi, question for the group:
I have a great scoped Remington UML that I have used in NM for elk. NM just banned scopes on MLs and I don't want to be tearing this gun apart and putting it back together if/when I draw another elk tag in NM. I'm considering going the Hankins converted CVA Scout V2 45-70 route with Williams Western Precision ML sight, shooting BH 209 and Pittman 300 gr. bullets. I currently shoot 110 gr. by weight BH 209 and Pittman 300 gr bullets in my UML. I wanted to ask if others are shooting BH 209 in the CVA Scout V2 and if so, what weight powder charge are you using?
Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated

I have a Thompson center encore with a brux barrel by mgm with 209 ignition 45 cal and I load 100 to 110 gr blackhorn by weight with a parker 270 emax 2450fps with a wad sized to bore shoots one hole if I do my part.Also have a cva scout from hank with di but haven't shot it yet but I'll bet it will shoot as good.Just wish I could find some more federal 209a primers.Love the parker emax have taken several elk and no problems.

I'm looking for some advise on where to start with BH-209 in my CVA 45-70 conversion from Hank, Wisconsin doesn't allow Smokeless during ML season. I've used lots of BH in my Knight .45's. I my Knight 45 1-20 twist I use 110 gr. by volume with a wool wad and the 250 Parker BE bullet.
