PowerBelt AeroLite® Bullets borrow many of the PowerBelt Platinum’s technical advantages – such as its plating technology, fluted gas check, and aggressive taper. However, the AeroLite bullet itself is completely different on the inside, being specifically designed to deliver optimal performance when used with standard (100 grain) propellant charges – the charge used by most hunters.
The AeroLite has a much larger hollow point cavity than either the Platinum or Copper PowerBelts. This larger cavity maximizes expansion capability while eliminating weight from the core of the bullet, allowing the bullet to be substantially longer than standard projectiles of similar weight. A longer bullet length produces more stability in flight and therefore, greater accuracy. A super-hard polycarbonate AeroTip fills the void of the oversized hollow point and serves to both optimize aerodynamics in flight and control expansion on impact. All of these AeroLite technologies are fine-tuned to perform best at “standard charge velocities” (1800 FPS or less on impact) – providing magnum performance without the magnum recoil.
- This does not mean, however, that magnum charges can never be used with AeroLites. In hunting situations where long-range shots are the norm, Aerolites may indeed be the best choice – even with a 150 grain load.
Copper-plated PowerBelts® have become the most popularmuzzleloading projectiles since the roundball. Available in three tip designs, AeroTip™, Hollow Point, and Flat Point. PowerBelt® Coppers offer the widest variety of grain weights in the PowerBelt® line-up, with several different weights from 195 grains all the way up to 444 grains. With PowerBelt® Copper Series bullets you’ll find the right combination for whatever game you’re chasing.

The original PowerBelt® Bullet was the Pure Lead, and it’s still a great choice for the
economy-minded shooter, whether for hunting or just target shooting.
PowerBelt® Pure Lead bullets will get the job done with authority. In states where
copper-plated bullets are not allowed, PowerBelt® Pure Leads are the highest tech,
best performing bullets you can shoot – and still be legal!
PowerBelt® Platinum™ AeroTip™ Bullets utilize an advanced plating technology, a more aggressive bullet shape, and a fluted gas check design.
PowerBelt® Platinums™ are plated using a proprietary process that creates a smoother, more uniform surface that reduces the standard deviation between shots. This plating results in reduced resistance as the bullet travels down the bore, producing faster, more consistent velocities to improve both trajectory and accuracy.
PowerBelt® Platinums™ deliver an improved ballistic coefficient by utilizing a more aggressive bullet tapered design. Not only does the taper provide for a more aerodynamic flight, it helps control the rate of expansion – regardless of powder charge or bullet velocity on impact.
1. Smaller hollow point cavity controls expansion 2. Smooth plated finish reduces standard deviation between shots for superior accuracy 3. Larger diameter gas check for tight seal 4. Reduced ogive increases ballistic coefficient and accuracy 5. Flutes in gas check make it easier to load 6. Scores inside gas check allow positive release when bullet exits barrel

PowerBelt® ELR Bullets were specially designed for CVA’s PARAMOUNT™ rifle, but can provide superior long-range performance in any .40, .45 or .50 caliber muzzleloader. In testing with the CVA PARAMOUNT™, using the the maximum recommended “supermagnum” charge of Blackhorn® 209 propellant, ELR bullets achieved muzzle velocities of 2740 in .40 caliber, 2560 in .45 caliber, and 2380 in .50 caliber. Critical to the ELR’s long-range potential is the high ballistic coefficient
as compared to other muzzleloading projectiles. Due to their longer length and aggressively tapered shape, the ELRs deliver a .360 BC in .40, a .333 BC in .45 and a .312 BC in .50 caliber. 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 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 (meaning: charges that produce higher pressures than traditional magnum loads). With rifles not designed for such high pressure loads, the maximum propellant charge recommended by the rifle manufacturer should not be exceeded.
