CVA Cascade XT 6.5 Creedmoor Bolt Action Rifle 22″ OD Green 4+1

Description

CVA built its name on muzzleloaders, then surprised a lot of people when the Cascade turned out to be one of the better value bolt guns on the market. The Cascade XT is the precision-minded version of that rifle, and this one comes chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor with a 22 inch barrel, a 4+1 detachable magazine, and an OD green synthetic stock with black webbing over a graphite black Cerakote barreled action.

What Sets the Cascade XT Apart

The headline here is the barrel. CVA shares a parent company with Bergara, and the XT wears a heavier #5 taper fluted barrel that holds steadier and soaks up more heat during longer strings than the standard Cascade tube. The fluting trims weight back down so the rifle still carries comfortably on a long walk in. The muzzle comes threaded 5/8×24 with a radial brake installed from the factory, which takes the already mild 6.5 Creedmoor down to nearly nothing and makes it easy to spot your own hits. Swap the brake for a suppressor whenever you are ready. An oversized tactical style bolt knob gives you real leverage on the 70 degree throw, and the trigger is user adjustable so you can dial it in to your liking.

A Stock That Fits More Than One Shooter

The fiberglass reinforced synthetic stock has a grippy SoftTouch finish and a removable spacer to adjust length of pull, handy for younger hunters, smaller framed folks, or anyone layering up in late season cold. Dual front swivel studs let you run a sling and a bipod at the same time. Mounting glass is simple too, since the receiver accepts two piece bases made for Savage 110 AccuTrigger pattern rifles, which you can find just about anywhere.

With a 1:8 twist stabilizing heavy 6.5 bullets and CVA's MOA accuracy guarantee behind it, this Cascade XT is a legitimate crossover rifle. Deer stand in November, steel plates in July, it handles both without complaint.
