PowerBelt® ELR Bullets were specially designed for CVA's® Paramount™ rifle, but can provide superior long-range performance in any 45 caliber muzzleloader with a twist rate of 1:24 or faster. In testing with the Paramount, using the recommended super-magnum charge of 140 grains by-volume of Blackhorn propellant, ELR bullets achieved muzzle velocities in excess of 2200 fps.

Critical to the ELR’s velocity potential is that it is 45 caliber, rather than 50 caliber. Because of the smaller bore diameter, the ELR bullets can be longer than a  same-weight 50 caliber bullet would be. That length, when combined with the bullet’s aggressively tapered shape, delivers a ballistic coefficient of .333, which is superior to that of any 50 caliber muzzle loading projectile.

Internally, the ELR is similar in concept to the PowerBelt AeroLite bullet, incorporating a large hollow point cavity which eliminates weight from the core, allowing that weight to be used to lengthen the bullet. This hollow core is filled by the tail of the super-hard polycarbonate ballistic tip, which offsets the tendency of the bullet to expand too rapidly.

Optimal performance of the ELR will be achieved using magnum or super-magnum propellant charges. Rifles like the CVA Paramount are designed to handle such super-magnum charges. With rifles not designed for such high pressure loads, the maximum propellant charge recommended by the rifle manufacturer should not be exceeded.

PowerBelt Bullets
The bullet now known as the PowerBelt® was originally designed by a small group of black powder enthusiasts who set out to create the perfect muzzleloading projectile. Disappointed with the inconsistent accuracy of the old style conical bullets and frustrated with the difficult loading of the modern sabots, they created a belted bullet that addressed all of these concerns; and delivered unsurpassed accuracy and knockdown power, as well. This basic design was patented and first sold as the Black Belt Bullet. Just a few years later, Michael McMichael, one of the original partners and now the president of PowerBelt Bullets, perfected the design, creating what would become the number one selling muzzleloading projectile in the world - the PowerBelt Bullet.

PowerBelt Bullets are now proudly manufactured in Nampa, Idaho. Over the years, the PowerBelt factory has grown from just a few friends working in a garage operation to a work force of more than 30 full-time employees housed in a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, using the latest modern production equipment and technologies. However, despite all of this growth and modernization, all of PowerBelt's employees are still dedicated to the same goal as were the original partners - producing high quality and great performing muzzleloading projectiles.
