CVA sells them and you may find them at a larger store. Western also sells them. Google is your friend.......
110grs volume BH209
CCI209M or Federal 209A primer
Barnes 290gr T-EZ bullet
The rest is up to you........

I have an older CVA Optima. It has the screw in breech plug rather than the QD.
I enlarged the breech plug hole from .019 to .030 and My rifle fires with BH209 and CCI mag primers every time.
