I also have the CVA optima with the break open action to load 209 primer. I like the open sites and hit bulls at 75 yds right off the shelf.. Nice gun for the $ and is 6 or 7 years old.2 years ago I shot a 105 lb doe with it. I changed to a lighter sabot and forgot to adjust sites. I hit high on the doe and broke its back.It was still alive I had to reload and finish it off. I like to hunt with it but hope to be tagged out by then . There is already a thread going in the equipment and firearm section if you need more feedback.
You've got my curiosity up about ML Hunting in NH. Have a camp on Aziscohos Lake that I hunt out of, NH border is right near the West shore of the lake and I know you can hunt on Sunday's in NH. That area of NH I believe is region A. Not looking for any specifics just wondering what your thoughts are about region A. I'm considering buying a NH license next year so that I can have the option of hunting West of Aziscohos in NH as well as in Maine when I'm up there deer hunting out of camp,Thanks,Aziscohosbuck
