CVA Muzzleloaders to Feature New “PalmSaver Ramrod”

CVA has licensed exclusive rights to the PalmSaver Ramrod design from Perry Hunsaker, world-famous elk guide and inventor of several innovative hunting products. The ramrod was first introduced on the new CVA ACCURA MR (Mountain Rifle), but has now been expanded as a standard feature on all of CVA’s 2012 break-action muzzleloaders.
According to Dudley McGarity, CEO of Blackpowder Products, Inc., owner of the CVA brand, “The ramrod that Perry designed is so practical for in-the-field or range use, that we knew it would be a great addition to our list of exclusive standard equipment features.”
The PalmSaver Ramrod consists of a solid aluminum rod with a threaded special jag on one end and a loading tip at the other. The actual PalmSaver, or knob, attaches to this threaded jag and is configured in a way that allows it to be left on the gun while firing. For the shooter, the rod can be removed quickly for loading a second shot, and, most importantly, the PalmSaver knob protects the palm while he seats the next bullet.

The rod also comes with a 4 inch jag extension which, when attached to the loading tip end, converts the ramrod into a full length range rod. Therefore, when the consumer purchases one of these guns, they get both an under-barrel reloading rod and a range rod in one. The PalmSaver Ramrod will be included on all of CVA’s 2012 Wolf, Optima, and Accura models, and it is also sold separately in lengths to fit CVA, Traditions, and T/C muzzleloaders.
