Description
Prairie dog towns and coyote stands have a way of exposing a rifle's weak points fast. The CVA Cascade Varmint Hunter was built with exactly that kind of shooting in mind, and this 6mm Creedmoor version might be the smartest chambering in the whole lineup. You get the flat trajectory and mild recoil that made the cartridge a favorite with long range crowds, plus a 1:7.5 twist barrel that handles heavy, high-BC bullets that buck the wind way out past where most varmint cartridges start to struggle.
What Sets the Cascade Varmint Hunter Apart
The 20 inch barrel wears a heavy varmint contour that soaks up heat during strings of fire and settles nicely over a bag or bipod. It comes threaded 5/8×24 with a thread protector installed, so adding a suppressor or brake takes about a minute. CVA borrowed the good stuff from their Long Range Hunter model here: a rigid synthetic stock with a flat, wide forend that rides bags well, an adjustable comb for proper eye alignment behind bigger scopes, and a removable length-of-pull spacer so you can dial the fit to your build. The Kryptek Highlander pattern over a Flat Dark Earth Cerakote barreled action looks sharp and shrugs off weather and field abuse.
Built for High Volume Days
Where a standard hunting rifle runs dry after three or four rounds, the Cascade VH feeds from a 10-round detachable box magazine. The double-stack design keeps the mag from hanging down far enough to interfere with prone shooting, which matters when you are stretched out on a dirt mound working a dog town. The factory 20 MOA Picatinny rail is already mounted, giving you extra elevation in the scope for reaching out at distance, and the two-position safety and 70 degree bolt throw keep everything quick and simple under a gloved hand.
Why 6mm Creedmoor in the Cascade VH Makes Sense
If you want one rifle that can hammer groundhogs at 300 yards on Saturday and stretch to distant coyotes the next weekend, this chambering does it without beating you up. Factory ammo is easy to find in everything from light varmint loads to heavy match bullets, and the fast twist means the rifle takes advantage of all of it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What twist rate does the Cascade Varmint Hunter in 6mm Creedmoor have?
This version runs a fast 1:7.5 twist, which is quicker than most factory 6mm barrels. That means it will stabilize heavy, high-BC bullets in the 105 to 110 grain range for long shots in the wind, while still shooting lighter varmint bullets well. It gives you a lot of flexibility across the full spread of 6mm Creedmoor factory ammo.
Is the barrel on the CVA Cascade VH suppressor ready?
Yes. The 20 inch heavy-contour barrel is threaded 5/8×24 and ships with a thread protector installed, so it accepts most common suppressors and muzzle brakes without any gunsmithing. The shorter barrel length also keeps the overall package manageable once a can is mounted.
Does the Cascade Varmint Hunter come with a scope rail?
It does. CVA installs a 20 MOA Picatinny rail at the factory, so you can bolt on rings and a scope right away. The 20 MOA cant gives you extra elevation adjustment for stretching shots out at longer distances, which is a nice touch on a rifle built for open-country varmint and predator work.
How adjustable is the stock on this rifle?
The Kryptek Highlander synthetic stock has an adjustable comb so you can set your cheek weld to line up with just about any scope, plus a removable length-of-pull spacer to fine-tune fit. The forend is flat and wide, which makes it steady over a bag, bipod, or shooting rail. It is one of the more complete stock setups you will find in this price class.
