Talley CVA Cascade Picatinny Rail, Black Anodized, Short Action, 0 MOA

Description

Talley built this rail for one job: giving your short-action CVA Cascade a dead-solid foundation for whatever glass you run. It's a one-piece Picatinny base cut to MIL-STD-1913 spec, so any standard Pic ring or mount clamps right on without fuss. The 0 MOA cant keeps things neutral, which is exactly what you want for general hunting and range work where you're not stretching way out past your zero.

What Sets the Talley CVA Cascade Rail Apart

This one is machined from high-grade 7000-series aluminum alloy and finished with a hard-coat anodizing rated to 65 Rockwell. That combination is why Talley backs the craftsmanship to last the lifetime of the firearm. It's American made and light, and the tolerances are held tight enough that you don't need to lap or shim anything before mounting. The full-length cross slots give you room to slide your rings fore and aft, so dialing in proper eye relief is quick and painless.

Getting the Short Action Rail Mounted

The rail lines up with the factory-drilled and tapped holes on the Cascade receiver, and the box comes with the mounting screws and a wrench so you're not hunting for hardware. Talley includes 1/4-inch 6-48 screws and a Torx wrench for the receiver. A drop of blue thread locker on the receiver screws is a smart move, though Talley suggests nothing stronger than Loctite Blue 242 and says to skip the thread locker on ring screws. Always test fit before you commit to any thread locker, and check with CVA on the correct torque for your receiver.

Matching the Right Cant and Action

One thing worth double-checking before you order: this is the short-action, 0 MOA version, which suits chamberings like the .308 family. If you're running a long-action cartridge such as 6.5 PRC, or you want built-in elevation for long-range shooting, you'll want the long-action or 20 MOA option instead. Confirm your action length and you'll have the right base the first time.
