thats exactly the other thing - what load is good in your gun. Pellets "pigeon hole" you to 100, or 150.
Probable having a few pellets could be nice to have ready for quick, up close, finish shots.
But I'll use powder.

As for the CVA, I'll see how it looks and feels to me when it arrives from Cabelas next week. I have seen many do well by them. Thought I'd give a shot. My round-ball is a .54 Renegade
