CVA's line of muzzleloaders and rifles exemplifies the pinnacle of hunting technology, delivering the accuracy and reliability that today’s hunters demand. Renowned for their precision craftsmanship, each CVA muzzleloader and centerfire rifle is equipped with a barrel made by Bergara, a leader in the industry known for its commitment to quality.
The manufacturing process begins with a straight bar of cylindrical steel that undergoes rigorous inspection to ensure it meets a deviation of less than 4/1,000 (or .004) of an inch. This attention to detail guarantees that every barrel is crafted to the highest standards of accuracy. Once the steel bar is approved, it is processed through a state-of-the-art four spindle deep hole drilling machine, where a specialized bit drills a precise hole through the entire length of the bar.
To produce the rifling grooves that define the barrel's accuracy, a carbide rifling button is drawn through the barrel, resulting in the perfect twist rate for each caliber. This meticulous process achieves a groove diameter deviation of less than 2/10,000 (or .0002”) of an inch, rivaling the results that skilled gunsmiths achieve through hand lapping. The combination of advanced engineering and precision manufacturing ensures that CVA's muzzleloaders and rifles provide unparalleled performance in the field.
After the rifling process, a high-temperature heating method is applied to realign the steel molecules, effectively eliminating any stress that may have been introduced during button rifling. This innovative technique not only enhances the durability of the barrel but also contributes to the overall performance of CVA's firearms.
