About a year ago I bought a CVA Bobcat 50 to use to teach the kids the basics of MLing and to have a plinker to have fun shooting RB with. So, when I heard CVA was getting out of the sidelock business, I thought I would see if I could find a 54cal barrel for the Bobcat. My thinking was that it would be better for elk. My oldest (14) is hoping to get drawn for a youth only hunt this year and the area we have been hunting is bow or ML only.
CVA had none and refered me to Deer Creek Products in Indiana. They had 2 54 barrels left for $65, sights and everything ready to drop in. They also had several 36cal rifles with wood stocks for $149. As an after thought I inquired about complete 54cal rifles, they had some. Well with 2 growing boys, I decided one rifle was not enough. For only $24 more than the barrel alone, I could get the whole gun in 54cal. Now the older son will have the 54 and the younger the 50.
If everything goes as scheduled I should have the new rifle by monday.
