Gooday all, I have owned several Black Powder Muzzleloaders over the years. .45
to
.54 cal. I have just purchased my first .32 cal. A CVA .32 cal. Varmint Hunter
that
appears to be new. There were no scratches at all on the ramrod. Anyway I did
not get
a manual with it and I have some questions. Hopefully someone out there is
familiar
with this rifle. I have looked at CVA's web site and was unable to find any
information
about this rifle. I have shot it a few times with a patched round ball, using 25
grains
Pyrodex Select RS, and it seems to be quite accurate. I am nolonger able to do
any
hunting but I really enjoy going to the range and doing some "paper hunting". I
have
learned I should be using Pyrodex "P" ( FFF EQ ) so I plan to switch over to
that. I can
give the rest of the can of RS to my son for his .54 cal.
My questions are: : :
1. What is the twist rate of the barrel?
2. What year would it have been made?
3. What is recommended powder load?
4. Will this shoot the mini Buffalo Bullets well?

Anyone who can help with my questions it will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much, and keep your powder dry. John
