The CVA Apex with Bergara Barrels Can Take Caribou and Turkeys with Joe Sebo
After the excellent performance of the CVA Apex with the .300 Win Mag Bergara barrel on my caribou hunt, I had no reservations about ordering the 12-gauge Bergara barrel with a turkey choke and scope rail to use on my Apex to hunt turkeys. Continue reading
Andy Weichers on Turkey Hunting with His CVA APEX and Spring Plantings
Now that the filming season is over, we’ve started going through all the shows and working with our editors to put TV shows together.

CVA Apex Vs. The Beast Part 3
At the shot, the bull reared back on its hind legs and promptly crashed back down on its front hooves, reminding me of a bronco that was trying to buck off its rider. Bouncing again on its front feet, it turned and ran straight away, disappearing into the cloud of red dust, which was filled with twisting and turning shapes of other frightened wildebeest.

Frustrated by the obscured chest view, I moved the crosshairs up the neck, to just above the nose. At about 75 yards, I watched as the wet nostrils flared, obviously suspicious of the three huddled lumps that did not belong. Continue reading

Clint O’Day Of Campfire Stories TV Is Taking Care Of Business
The 2012 early muzzleloader season in Iowa was typical….temps in the mid to high 70’s and standing corn as obstacles compounded by the October lull.

The reasoning I gave myself this year was that crops went in early so they should come out early plus I have several July and August trail pictures of some great bucks. Knowing the state puts a quota on early muzzleloader tags, my choice had to be made prior to August 15th when tags go on sale. Continue reading
