Description
Left-handed hunters usually get the short end of the stick when a new rifle line comes out, so it says something that CVA built the Cascade XT as a proper mirrored action instead of asking lefties to make do. This version pairs that left-hand bolt with the .350 Legend, a straight-wall cartridge that has earned a loyal following among whitetail hunters for hitting hard inside 250 yards while staying gentle on the shoulder. Add the factory radial muzzle brake on top of an already soft-recoiling round and you have a rifle that new hunters, smaller-framed folks, and anyone tired of getting beat up at the range will genuinely enjoy shooting.
What Sets the Cascade XT Apart
The XT is the precision-minded member of the Cascade family, and the upgrades are practical rather than cosmetic. The 22 inch 4140 chromoly barrel wears a heavier #5 taper with fluting, which steadies the rifle on a rest and keeps groups tight when you send several rounds downrange in a row. The muzzle is threaded 5/8×24, so swapping the included brake for a suppressor is a five-minute job. An oversized tactical-style bolt knob gives you extra leverage for quick follow-ups, and the 70 degree bolt throw leaves plenty of clearance for a scoped setup. The trigger is adjustable too, so you can dial the pull weight down to where you like it.
Built for Real Hunting Conditions
Everything metal is coated in Graphite Black Cerakote, which shrugs off rain and treestand scrapes better than traditional bluing. The fiberglass-reinforced synthetic stock comes in OD green with black webbing and a grippy SoftTouch finish, and a removable spacer lets you shorten the length of pull for a smaller shooter or bulky cold-weather layers. Dual front swivel studs mean you can run a sling and a bipod at the same time, and the 4-round detachable box magazine keeps reloads simple. At around 7.3 pounds bare, it carries fine all day but has enough heft to settle in for the shot. For a lefty who wants a straight-wall deer rifle done right, this one checks all the boxes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the CVA Cascade XT left-hand model a true left-handed action?
Yes, this is a fully mirrored left-hand bolt action, not a right-handed gun with workarounds. The bolt handle, ejection port, and controls are all set up for a left-handed shooter, so you can cycle rounds without breaking your cheek weld or reaching over the action.
Can I run a suppressor on the Cascade XT in 350 Legend?
You sure can. The muzzle is threaded 5/8×24, and the factory radial brake spins right off so you can mount a suppressor directly. The .350 Legend is a popular pairing with cans since it runs well with subsonic loads.
Does this rifle come with sights or a scope?
No, the Cascade XT ships without iron sights or an optic. The receiver is set up for mounting a scope, so plan on adding glass before heading to the range. Most owners pair it with a mid-range hunting scope in the 3-9x or 2-10x class since the .350 Legend is at its best inside 250 yards.
What is the CVA Cascade XT 350 Legend best suited for?
This is first and foremost a deer rifle, and the .350 Legend excels on whitetail out to around 250 yards. It also works well on hogs and black bear at moderate ranges. The mild recoil, further softened by the muzzle brake, makes it a great pick for newer hunters and anyone recoil sensitive.
