CVA made a name for itself with muzzleloaders, but the Cascade line proved they could build a serious centerfire bolt gun too. The Cascade XT is the stepped-up version of that platform, and this one pairs a Midnight Bronze Cerakote barrel and receiver with a Mossy Oak New Bottomland stock, a combo that looks right at home in a treestand or a duck timber bottom. Chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor with a 4+1 capacity and a flush-fitting detachable box magazine, it covers everything from whitetail to pronghorn without breaking a sweat.
The 22 inch barrel wears a heavier #5 taper with fluting to shave weight and help shed heat, so your third and fourth shots stay as true as your first. The 1:8 twist stabilizes the heavy, high BC bullets that made the 6.5 Creedmoor famous, and the muzzle is threaded 5/8×24 with a radial brake installed to knock down what little recoil the cartridge produces. Add the included 20 MOA Picatinny rail and you have a rifle ready to stretch out past typical hunting distances. CVA backs it all with their MOA guarantee, which says plenty about their confidence in the build.
The three lug bolt runs on a short 70 degree throw, giving you extra scope clearance and faster follow-up shots, and the oversized knob is easy to run with cold hands or gloves. The single stage trigger comes set around 3 pounds and adjusts from 2 to 4, so you can tune it to your liking. The fiberglass reinforced stock has a grippy SoftTouch finish, dual front swivel studs for running a sling and bipod together, and a spacer system that adjusts length of pull from 13 to 14 inches. That last bit makes this an easy rifle to share with a younger hunter or fit to a heavy coat in late season. At roughly 7.25 pounds bare, it carries well without feeling whippy off the bench.
Yes. CVA backs the Cascade XT with their MOA accuracy guarantee, and they give you a window after purchase to shoot the rifle and verify it groups to that standard. Independent reviews have reported sub-MOA groups from XT rifles in 6.5 Creedmoor with quality factory match ammo.
The 1:8 twist on this 6.5 Creedmoor is fast enough to stabilize the full range of factory loads, including the heavy 140 to 147 grain bullets that give the cartridge its long-range reputation. Lighter 120 to 129 grain hunting loads run great too. Like most rifles, it pays to test a few loads and see which one your barrel prefers.
The barrel is threaded 5/8×24, which is the standard thread pitch for most 30 caliber and smaller suppressors and muzzle devices. It ships with a radial muzzle brake installed, so you can spin that off and attach a can or a different device without any gunsmithing.
Yes, the buttstock uses a spacer system that lets you adjust length of pull from 13 to 14 inches. That makes it easy to shorten the stock for a youth or smaller framed hunter, then add the spacer back as they grow. The trigger is also user adjustable from 2 to 4 pounds, so the whole rifle can be tuned to the person behind it.
