As I expected - there wasn't that snick/click when I closed it. Seemed to be solid lockup but struck me as odd. In Internet search I ran across several people reporting the higher pressure caliber H&Rs would pop open upon firing. I really liked the feel of the CVA. Didn't feel as clunky. The rifle is made in Italy which sure beats China!!

The CVA crackbarrel rifles IMO are one of the reasons for (reply)

the demise of the H&R rifles. I have shot several, all with better triggers right out of the box than any of the new H&R's.

Not a bad set up for the bucks. (reply)

Another Munchkin rifle

Picked up a deer rifle for the munchkin but Dad will probably have to break it in... Academy had CVA Hunter single shots in 223 for $229 with scope. Not a high dollar scope (Konus) but a pretty good feeling compact little rifle. Hated to pass it up. My brother has one in 7mm 08 that is a handy little thing. Now to get it to the range...
