Description
This CVA accessory outfit is built around one idea: getting a .50 caliber muzzleloader shooter set up without hunting down a dozen separate items. It's put together for folks running pelletized propellants like Pyrodex pellets, and it plays nice with any brand of inline muzzleloader, not just CVA rifles. You get the loading tools, the bullets, and the maintenance supplies bundled together, so the only things you need to add are your pellets and primers.
What Comes in the CVA Pellet Shooter's Outfit
The centerpiece is a dozen 295-grain PowerBelt bullets. The belted base on these seals the bore for a tight gas seal, which is a big part of why PowerBelts became such a go-to projectile for muzzleloader hunters. Alongside the bullets you get the PowerBelt SpeedClip loader, which carries three complete loads of pellets and a bullet plus room for 209 primers, all in a weatherproof clip that snaps onto a sling or belt for quick follow-up shots in the field.
Loading and Cleaning Gear in the AA1716 Kit
A hollow point bullet starter with a set of loading tip attachments makes seating bullets far easier than fighting them down the bore by hand, and the range of tips covers different bullet nose shapes. On the maintenance side you get CVA's Barrel Blaster solvent, cleaning patches, a bore brush, and a small-and-large breech brush set for scrubbing out fouling. There's also a breech plug and nipple anti-seize grease stick, which is the kind of thing people forget until a breech plug gets stuck.
Rounding it out is the "Blackpowder 101" instructional DVD. That makes this a genuinely friendly starting point if muzzleloading is new to you, since it walks through loading and cleaning steps rather than leaving you to figure it out. Even seasoned hands tend to appreciate having the bullets, loader, and cleaning kit all matched up in one package instead of piecing it together on their own.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do I still need to buy to shoot with the CVA pellet shooter's outfit?
The kit covers your bullets, loading tools, and cleaning supplies, but it does not include the propellant or primers. You'll need pelletized powder such as Pyrodex pellets and 209 primers to actually fire. Once you have those two items and your muzzleloader, you're ready to load and shoot.
Will this outfit work with muzzleloaders other than CVA?
Yes. This accessory outfit is designed to be compatible with any brand or type of inline muzzleloader, not just CVA rifles. As long as it's a .50 caliber pellet gun, the bullets, loader, and cleaning gear will suit it.
What size PowerBelt bullets come in the AA1716 kit?
The outfit includes a dozen 295-grain PowerBelt bullets in .50 caliber. The belted base seals against the bore for a clean gas seal, which is one of the reasons PowerBelts are such a popular pick for muzzleloader hunting. It's a solid all-around bullet weight for deer-sized game.
Is this kit a good choice for someone new to muzzleloading?
It's a strong starting point. Beyond bundling the tools you'd otherwise have to track down one at a time, it includes a "Blackpowder 101" instructional DVD that walks through proper loading and cleaning steps. That takes a lot of the guesswork out of your first few range trips.
