Manual

2. Buffering agents or components consist of small round balls made from

plastic or other materials, such as flour, etc.

J. WADS

1. The wads, more than any other single shooting accessory used in a muzzle-

loading shotgun, determine the efficiency of the load.

2. Wads must be inserted into the shotgun barrel in correct sequence without

deviation.

3. There are two basic categories of wads. (See Figure 5.)

a. Traditional, independent wads.

b. Modern, one-piece plastic wad.

WARNING: Under no circumstances should any form of buffering

agent be added to the shot load for the CVA Shotgun. Use will ex-

ceed safety limitations of this type of firearm.

DANGER: Do not confuse the term

plastic wad with that of plastic patch,

used in loading single shot

muzzleloaders. CVA does not recom-

mend the use of any plastic patch due

to ball-to-plastic patch fit. To use any

type of plastic patch will void the

warranty.
