CVA's copper plated PowerBelts have become the most popular muzzleloading projectiles since the roundball and truly are "the bullets that made sabots obsolete". They are #1 for a reason, and if you don’t believe us, just ask any hunter who has shot them. The thin copper plating greatly reduces bore friction for higher velocities, while the polymer AeroTip insures consistent expansion.

.50cal 245gr Powerbelt Bullets
They worked even better than I expected. I used them in my .50cal MR-X Accura & my .50cal Optima Pistol.

I use them in my CVA Wolf
Use the Hollow points if using under 100 grains of powder. I use 80 grains of Triple 7, that is my best accurate load. It puts the deer down for the count. Use 295 grain Copper or Lead Hollow points the 245's don't have enough Punch!!!, the Aero-tips shoot a straight hole through deer, no mushrooming or damage internally. 295 copper or lead hollow points are Best on Deer. Thanks

I bought these for my CVA
I bought these for my CVA wolf and my CVA Eclipse Hunter Magnum and they are very true and accurate both with a magnum charge and a 100 grain charge can't go wrong here for the price

This is the most accurate
This is the most accurate bullet I have found so far for my muzzle loader. I am grouping 3 inches with a scope and a bench and 100 yards. Took down a 325lb hog at 75 yds and dropped him dead in his tracks! The hog didn,t even grunt! Can't wait to try them out on a White tail this fall.

if you use the pb 295 hol
if you use the pb 295 hollow point,dont push it at high speeds.only use it at medium loads in your muzzleloader.it will blow up if pushed fast.personelly, i feel the only place to use it is in flintlocks that are loaded down and say with open sights and close shooting.for in-lines, i would never use this bullet .there are much better bullets avaialable to use in your in-lines that can be pushed at faster speeds and hold up.

I have used these bullets
I have used these bullets for three years now with marginial results.These offer fair accuracy,yet poor penetration.Made a change in bullets when I lost a nice 8 pointer this year.Blood trailed for 200+ with very little blood,a common trait I have come to learn.Entry no exit makes blood loss very poor!!

was using the 295 hollow
was using the 295 hollow point of these bullet and killed a doe 50 yard shot then threw both showders but meat damage was a little to much now using the 245 areo tips 50 yard on a 9 point ran 40 yards blood trail was easy to follow next used on huge 8 point 60 yard shot ran 30 yards blood trail again easy to see (no snow on any hunts) this bullet is easy to load using 100 grains of 777 like any bullet you will need to play to find the load that your gun likes i want a load that i don't have to stand on to get it to go down the barrel of the gun play on buying more of these bullets plan on using them on woodchucks this coming summer
