Was surfing this morning and found a CVA Scout V2 TD with the stainless finish in 6.5 Creedmoor for $319 plus $22 for shipping. Thought since I already have dies, brass, and bullets why not give it a try so ordered it. Most likely I’ll add either a 2x7 or 3x9 scope and call it a day.
Not much can go wrong at this price. With luck it will be here in about a week. Stock is supposed to be ambitious so hope it fits my left handed shooting.

I been kicking around the idea of getting a CVA in 44 mag.

Cva's are good rifles. Should work fine for you as long as you don't expect 1/2 inch groups at 100 yards. Nothing wrong with the gun just not a tack driver. 1 and 1/2 to 2 inches all day forever. For the money it will get the job done.
I have a older CVA Scout / Hunter in 243 Win. I am also left handed and it does fit me very nice and is accurate.
Mine is a plain Jane matte finished with a fluted barrel and will heat up quick after 3 shots but for a hunting rifle it’s great.

Don’t think I shot a deer beyond 50 yards in the last 5 years so 1.5 MOA is more than adequate.

My V2 .300 BLK will shoot 3 shot 1/2" groups at 100yds with factory ammo. I mostly shoot subsonic reloads and it will stack them at 50yds all day long.

Having CVA market or build decent quality centerfire guns still astounds me, I remember them from the 1970's as one of the lower quality importers of BP muzzle loading kit guns.
Don't get me wrong, that .45 cal CVA Kentucky pistol taught me a lot about using a handgun for small game.

These are built by Bergara for CVA and imported. The value per dollar on them is amazing. One only needs to pick one up and open and close the action to realize how well built they are.

I have the CVA scout in 35 Whelen it preforms very well, I am so happy with it I am thinking of getting one in 444 Marlin for my self for Christmas,
I have a CVA wolf inline. I like it very much. Thus the reason im leaning towards a centerfire rifle from them.

I am amazed they still haven't offered a chambering for .357 magnum . Not that I need one but I think I would buy one .

Buy it cheap and stack it deep , you may need it !

Yes ! That’s what I have been saying for years, handi rifles in 357 are like gold and were probably one of their top sellers. Many possibilities of rechambers on a 357 make it a gun that would really sell well.Originally Posted by Jack Stanley
They did chamber their single shot pistol in 357 but not the rifle ?

My brother has the CVA in 44 mag, and yes the barrels are made by Begara and it’s a steal of value . We worked up a load when he picked it up last year on Nov 1st, nov 15th he shot a very large southeastern MI corn fed whitetail doe- well over 220 double lumber her at 30 yards she ran about 40 feet and fell over dead can’t ask for better
I kinda wanted to try something different with mine and bought an Optima thumbhole stock for it from CVA. Fits perfectly. https://cva.bpishopping.com/shop/sto...buttstock.html

Just ordered one today. Hope it is as good as I've heard they are. We will see...

Not needing another .30 caliber rifle; but if it is offered in 30-30 you Enablers have me wanting one......

You're safe. CVA doesn't have it in a 30-30. 350Legend but no 30-30, go figure.

Hunter, in 45-70 with the optima thumbhole for me. I have had it for 2 Iowa straight wall seasons and has been up to the challenge of filling my tags both years.
Picked up the rifle a few days ago. Fit and finish seems very good, trigger is outstanding. No creep that I can detect. Seems a little heavy but I won’t be hiking much with it so the weight will help it settle down on the bags/rest better when shooting on my range.
Hammer extension. I am a lefty so need to move it to the other side. Does it simply unscrew counter clockwise?

Any idea if they'll offer additional barrels like H&R did?
