These blanket statements of yours cannot go unanswered. Here are some observations made by an experienced shooter this past weekend: "TC Triump.. Light weight, Amazing balance, Shouldered good " Needed another 1/4" drop and it would have shouldered perfect for me".... Fair sights. They had a green dot as the front sight and it was blurry for my eyes. Recoil pad wasnt that great. Thats the most important part on a light weight 6 1/2lb rifle and tc got cheap on that area. Down side of the rifle. QLA was off center BIG time! I was checking the bore and one side had groves that were taller than the non bored barrel while the other side was flush with the QLA. Whats with the 1" QLA TC puts of these rifles? My Winchester only has maybe a 1/4" QLA. Maybe this is there TC loses their accuracy when conicals are loaded? To me, it didnt make any sense to have a QLA that was atleast 1" long. Was a nice rifle but the stock could really used some reworking and a less slick surface. I thought i took it easy on a tc this time, didnt you? lol. It was a nice rifle but tc needs to get their QLA issue fixed badly." I would only add that TC continues to insist on positioning the scope mount screws as if everything they make was a pistol. NutZ! Maybe Loggy will let you check out his Super 91 one of these days.

will be picking up my new triumph next week. have no idea what your talking about. the recoil pad is a sims, the stock has great grips, and checking the bore looked as good as any i've seen.

Willing to bet that you can find more CVA junkers than T/C junkers. Moving back more towards trying Knights,but would buy a decently priced omega or encore in a heart beat. I won't be buying a triumph but that is because the gun doesn't fit me not because of a structural flaw.

Those were another fellows words. I don't own a CVA and don't intend owning one. I do own a TC Encore 209x45, TC G2 209x45, a .50 NEF Huntsman, and three Whites.
