CVA Stainless Scout Takedown in 45-70

[303carbine]

If anyone has second thoughts about buying one of these rifles, don't think twice.... buy one.
I reloaded some 420 gc cast with Marlin level loads, with only one scope correction after bore sighting, this rifle shoots into the same hole.
Even with the muzzle brake removed, there was almost no recoil due to the excellent buttpad CVA puts on their rifles.
I was going to buy a 35 Remington in a different brand, I'm glad I waited.
I have a bear tag that I am going to fill asap.

Awesome! Only thing is, I wanted sights and wood stock so I went with a Henry.

I was hoping for irons as well, the CVA would look nice with a Ruger style wrap around front sight with a rear peep sight similar to the Skinner sight.

I've thought about one of these and putting it in a Boyds stock set since I'm not awfully fond of synthetic stocks.

I wish they made it in a 223 and 30-30. Would be excellent.

I just got one in 300 BO. Love it! Have a can in "suppressor jail".

I just shot some 440 grain cast out of my CVA 45-70, wow is all I have to say.
Very accurate at the 150 yard target I was shooting at (big rocks) before, little rocks after.
I asked my casting guy to make them soft to pancake on big black bears, one tag to fill.
