    CVA Barrels interchangeable?

    Like the Contenders and Encores? Can a guy buy a barrel for one of the CVAs and just install it and expect everything to be good to go or are they like the H&Rs that require fitting?

    They had a switch barrel rifle. Think it was called an Apex

    Yes they do, and they fit well. I have an Optima Elite 50 Cal Muzzleloader that I swap out for a 7mm-08 barrel all the time.

    Midway has several barrels, 308
