Description
There is something refreshing about a break-action single shot, and the CVA Scout V3 keeps that simple formula while adding the features hunters expect today. This version comes chambered in .360 Buckhammer, the straight-wall cartridge that has earned a loyal following for putting whitetails down with authority inside 200 yards. The 20 inch fluted barrel wears a blued finish and comes threaded 5/8×24 at the muzzle, so adding a suppressor or brake takes nothing more than a few turns. At around 6.4 pounds with a 43.85 inch overall length, it carries easy through thick timber and swings quick from a box blind or climber.
A Scout V3 That's Ready for Glass
CVA ships this rifle without iron sights for a reason. A 0 MOA Picatinny rail comes installed from the factory, and the receiver is drilled and tapped, so mounting your favorite scope or red dot is about as painless as it gets. The 1:12 twist barrel stabilizes the common .360 Buckhammer bullet weights well, and the break-action design makes it simple to verify the chamber and load with cold hands in the dark.
Built for Real Hunting Weather
The Stealth Grey synthetic stock shrugs off rain, snow, and truck-bed abuse that would beat up a wood stock in one season. Ambidextrous ergonomics and a comfortable recoil pad take the sting out of the Buckhammer's already manageable push, which makes this a smart pick for newer hunters and younger shooters working up from a rimfire.
Why the Scout V3 in .360 Buckhammer Makes Sense
Single shots teach discipline, and they tend to make better hunters. One round in the chamber means you pick your shot and make it count. Pair that mindset with a hard-hitting straight-wall cartridge, a threaded muzzle, and an optics-ready receiver, and you have a lightweight deer rifle that covers the vast majority of hunting situations without the extra weight or complexity. It is a straightforward tool for filling the freezer, and it does that job very well.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the CVA Scout V3 in .360 Buckhammer come with sights?
No, this model ships without iron sights. It comes with a 0 MOA Picatinny rail already installed and the receiver is drilled and tapped, so it's set up for a scope or red dot right out of the box. Plan on adding an optic before your first range trip.
Is the barrel threaded for a suppressor?
Yes, the 20 inch fluted barrel is threaded 5/8×24 at the muzzle, which is the standard thread pitch for most .30 caliber and larger suppressors and muzzle devices. A suppressor pairs really nicely with the Buckhammer's moderate velocities.
What is .360 Buckhammer good for?
The .360 Buckhammer is a straight-wall cartridge built primarily for deer hunting, and it hits plenty hard for whitetails and hogs out to around 200 yards. It's based on the .30-30 case and delivers similar or better performance with heavier .358 caliber bullets, all with recoil that's easy on the shoulder.
Is this the takedown version of the Scout?
No, this is the standard Scout V3, not the takedown model. It's still a compact, lightweight break-action at 6.4 pounds and just under 44 inches overall, so it stows and carries easily. If you want the version that breaks into two pieces for packing, CVA offers that separately.
