I have an Accura LR Nitride, and have been pleased.  I bought it last year, and wasn't able to get out in the field much, but it seems to be a tack-driver at the range.  I chose the CVA over the T/C only because of the Bergara barrel.

I also have a CVA Acura MR with the nitride Bergara barrel - quite satisfied with accuracy through 200 yards using Blackhorn 209 powder (requires purchase of a separate Quick Release Breech Plug to use Blackhorn powder).  Performance is quite good with IMR White Hots, Pyrodex pellets, etc - Blackhorn is just so much cleaner.

In my experience, Blackhorn is quite a bit cleaner than White Hots. In range testing, I was able to go 5-6 shots with Blackhorn without even a dry patch through the bore and still maintain accuracy, while I could not get anywhere close to that with White Hots (maybe 2-3).  Only downside is Blackhorn is a loose powder only, and so is not as convenient.  White Hots did well with my chosen projectile (Barnes SpitFire TMZ, 250gr).
